Twice I've looked hard at 8-3/8" barreled K frames in .38. Each time in the $1100 range. More than I want to spend, but if I spend less, I probably get less ... worn out or problem guns. It is really too bad there aren't any target grade .38s .. or much of anything else .. available anymore.
I think I've only owned one .38, an early SP-101 prior to the switch to .357. Fun, useful, but for my application I want adjustable sights.
