Default RE: 9mm revolver

I'll ask why you're wanting specifically a 9mm? If you've already got a 9mm in another gun, then that's one thing, but it shouldn't really be a huge determinant factor for what you're looking at now. As far as revolvers for CC go, you'd be better off with a .38spcl or .357mag, they're the same size as the 9mm and they've got more umph. Typically 9mm revolvers aren't built on their own specific frame, they're a 9mm cylinder in a .38spcl or .357mag revolver's frame, kind of like 16ga SxS shotguns always being heavy because manufacturers just put 16ga tubes on 12ga receivers.

Look at Ruger GP and SP series revolvers, I don't think they still make a 9mm (unless it's a .38spcl or .357mag with a convertable option), but you'd be more than happy with either of these lines.
