I've owned a 3 inch, 9mm SP-101 for years and still carry it pretty often. I usually belt carry in a Simply Rugged holster and just like most any other gun I carry it takes a while to get used to it.
That little popper shoots so well that I'd keep it as my only carry revolver over the rest I...
You may want to buy a pistol rack. It keeps them horizontal so air can circulate. Wipe them down good and check them a couple times a month for grins and giggles.
Give a look at the S&W 422-622, they're no longer made but none of mine have ever had a hiccup. They are under barrel pistols with aluminum frames making them a great choice for youngsters. The barrel and actions are steel and holdup very well.
I own a -3 and carry on milk runs. I'm thinking all had barrel nuts but not 100% sure. Your best off asking the adapter question at EWK. Mine had hiccups the first couple boxes but has been flawless ever since.

I shot many a box of LR shells in it years ago but now limit it to...

Good luck on your search and enjoy shooting your new purchase......:)
