Anyone have or shot one yet? Impressions?

It's heavier than my .38, and would be a fluffy kittens-cat with +P 158gr loads, but I'm not sure that's reason enough to buy one.
I doubt I'd ever actually carry it as a .357, as I simply don't have much need for the extra power in a trail gun (which is how I use my 3" LCRXs). There are no large carnivores where I tread these days, and two legged predators aren't immune to +P .38s.
I'm now waiting on the 3" LCRX in 9mm, not that it will perform any better than the .38, but I have a bunch more ammo on-hand for that one.

She tells me it pulls on her clothes so much and she has to keep pulling them up. Other than that it's perfect. We started shopping for one locally at dealers and the gun show, but nobody has one in stock. Has anyone ever seen one in person?
