S&W Bodyguard fits your criteria. I haven't shot one...maybe someone who has will be along shortly. __________________ "Life's tough. It's tougher if you're stupid." -- John Wayne |

I have a Ruger LCR in 357 mag. that I daily carry and I like it. It doesn't have a laser but it should get the job done. It has a little recoil but I don't think it to much I really like shooting it regularly, I have yet to put any 38s thru it.

Ruger LCR in .357...same here...Have shot the M+P, trigger is stiff, laser is distracting and to me not worth the extra cash..$150-$200 extra. Tons of other choices too but that was mine...  __________________ Do unto others as you would have others do unto you...just do it first |

Well, there you go, OP...I knew someone would be along with some actual experience, and an up or down on the S&W BG....looks like the Ruger is the one to beat
I used to shoot a friends SP101 with some regularity...nice little gun as well. No laser tho... __________________ "Life's tough. It's tougher if you're stupid." -- John Wayne |

I carry an S&W M&P 360 and I like it a lot. I like the fact that I can cock the hammer back for SA. No the hammer has never snagged when drawing from IWB holster |

Crimson Trace makes 2 lasers for the SP101. Mine has the LG111. Buy direct from Crimson Trace as it is cheaper. __________________ "I would not be an old man if I had not been an armed young man." JTJ

I carry a Charter Arms bulldog as a backup gun.
Barrel was shortened to 2 inches, magna-ported, and I rounded the hammer spur off to lessen the chances of it catching when drawing from concealment.
In .44 special I can empty all 5 rounds just as fast as I can pull the trigger with very manageable recoil. __________________ Habitual collector of Hamilton .22 Boys Rifles
Great deals on magazines and ammunition, PM me for more details.

Dont use it at night. The ports will really light up. I tried it with a ported 38 spl +P and was blind for a good while.  __________________ "I would not be an old man if I had not been an armed young man." JTJ
