I prefer single stacks. My first semi-auto was a Browning Hi-Power and it felt like I was holding a brick. Then I got hold of a 1911A1 and a 40-year love affair began.
S&W N-frames are also not a good fit for me. The reach to the trigger is too far. A very long time ago I had a Model 29 and got rid of it for that reason. (It also punished my social finger.) Then about five years ago I bought a 3" Model 24 in 44 Special, thinking maybe my experience, and the fact that it wasn't a magnum, would change things. Nope.
The J, K, and L-frames are great.
A 2" Model 10 (1981) is my CCW.
