New Gen J Frame - thought?

Just noticed that S&W has added a 2 1/2" barrel option to the line. It now has a full length ejector which might appeal to some. For me, I have gotten pretty efficient at getting a clean ejection, but it does take practice. I'm not sure how I feel about longer barrel. It detracts IMO to the intent of the gun in the first place which is to be small, light, and concealable.

I'm interested to see how it will do in the marketplace. I'm wondering if it will become more popular with the female crowd since it'll help in two ways, recoil and ejection.

Here's an article on the subject.

I like the extra barrel length if it is to be carried in a holster. It would be a liability for pocket carry. I won't own one until they get rid of that usless lock!!!
