Which pistol would you choose?
I have a 4-inch Model 19-3 and a 6-inch Model 19-4. Not a super fan of barrels shorter than 4-inches. Revolvers are range guns for me. I’d choose the Colt even if I didn’t already have some Model 19's.

I'd take the Colt. I have a Trooper and I'd still take the Colt.

I have a couple of 19-2's so I would take the Colt.

Even though I already have a model 66 2 & 1/2 and a newer 2 & 3/4 inch revolvers, I’d take the model 19.

There are three pistol choices, not two! Smile

Just in case the OP didn’t catch the humor, the third pistol appears that be a 5 shot J-frame.

The Model 19! I had a 4" Model 19 in the mid 1970s. I regret to this day selling it.

Hands down it would be the Model 19 S&W.. in the early 80"s had a 4inch nickle and still regret letting it go. ............. drill sgt.

The M19 looks great but after having one or 2 I really did not shooting them as much as i would have thought...but it looks very nice.
The colt looks like it might have a few miles on it...I like that plus a 4" is a very practical choice...

Neither would be ideal for a steady diet of heavy loads ...

Yup, I would go with the Colt and then fine some nice leather.
