Did someone say L frame? This one was bought new by my dad in July '81. I got it when he passed in '92 and used it to teach both my sons how to shoot a handgun. He had it worked over by a well known 'smith in Arizona (Frank Glenn), has an amazing action, bead blast finish and has held up well over thousands of rounds. I have the original box, all papers, tools and even the original receipt.
As pointed out S&W has made the .357 available in all the current frame sizes (J. K L and N). These days I prefer to shoot .38s for fun but run a few mags through this one now and then and frequently carry it up in the hills.
Here it is with the elk stags and Tyler T-grip it normally wears:
