I have one, and it is a great carry gun, 5 in the gun with a speed strip in the pocket, still light enough to carry everywhere.

Any issues I get in are going to be up close and personal. Shooting .357 loads are a bit fierce, with substantial muzzle blast. Muzzle blast is a two edged sword, tough on the shooter, but tougher on the recipient of the blast. A bunch of hot air from the muzzle blast into someone's chest at close range will have a more immediate effect than the bullet. Same goes for shooting an attacking dog at close range.
