Wade, the Model 19 was one of my all time favorite guns ever. Nickle plated and a triger that was sooo smooth, ya couldn't tell when it was going to let off. I wouldn't recomended it for a steady diet of hot 357's. I popped the plating off the cylinder, shooting hot loads. When I sent it back to Smith & Wesson, they replated it for free, but I only shot 38's and factory 357's in it after that. You've got a very nice, well ballanced piece there, and if she's wearing blue you'll probably never have a problem.
