I had to make the same decision when I got my Model 60. Took a loss in trade on my 870 and my 1911. I had no affinity for the jamomatic shotgun or the American icon that was made in Brazil, but I really wanted that no dash stainless snub before someone else got to it. One of the best gun decisions I've ever made; the snub is my go-to EDC here in hot, humid Florida.
I hope to get a Model 65 or 66 with a short barrel at some point. I have a lot of more practical items on my short list at the moment, though. Kudos to your new S&W snub, sir. Post pics when/if you can.
