I noticed this on forums and gun brokers. I wonder why? I got 2", 4",6" models here and prefer 4" model.
Supply and demand? Maybe they don't make as many 3-inchers?
I've got a 3" 65.
In the modern era, the only way to get a 3" 65 is. . . . a Laaaaydayyyysmittthhhhhh.
So yeah, that's what I have. It's your standard Model 65. With Ladysmith on the side of the bbl. Nice gun. Came with my own Mansier and tactical shoulder satchel.

You're looking at this the wrong way. Instead of assuming that the Ladysmith indicates femininity, look at it as artistry? A silversmith works in silver, right? A goldsmith works in gold. A blacksmith works in.....iron? (OK - never mind that one)
Soooooooooooo, a "Ladysmith" would be an artist who works in............................
Lately it seems that 3" is more desirable, according to the gun rags and the internet.

No you should have not.....I would have bought it ;-)I had a 3 inch round butt 686 Cs1. I read that the Customs Service requested three inch barrels because it allowed the extractor to clear .357 cases from the cylinder. I should not have sold that gun.
It was 1987. I was young and stupid.No you should have not.....I would have bought it ;-)
