I have one in blue and mounted a Tyler T grip to it.  I like the little guy but it is heavy. I don't live in a CCW state, so I have no idea as to how it carries in a pocket, but I'm sure it would be fine on a belt.    Mostly I like the steel frame because I'm a wimp and the recoil of +p rounds in the alloy and scandium frame models are just too much for me to shoot for fun.  It is accurate enough, but like all J frames it takes lots of practice to master.  The grip safety is a little wierd and prevents the use of a lot of aftermarket grips which is why I went with the T grips.  Here is a good thread on the model for more information and some cool pictures.  http://www.louderthanwords.us/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5777

Hope this helps.
