    revolver especially for idpa

    I carry a Smith & Wesson 642 with Crimson Trace and am interested in a similar gun for idpa matches. It seems that a six shot cylinder would be most popular. a 3 or 4 inch barrel would be best and good stock sights are a must. I guess .38 or better is required Any ideas?
