Can anyone post pictures of the different revolver frames? I see a lot of posts about J frames, L frames, ___ frames, but I'm not really familiar with the differencs between them. Examples of each would be appreciated.

J is smallest, X frame (500 S&W) is largest but not pictured....back in the day, the N frame was the largest. L and K frames are mid size.

I'm not a S&W guy though, so take it for what it's worth.
