Smith & Wesson Model 60-15 .357 Magnum 3-Inch Stainless J-Frame Revolver
The Smith & Wesson Model 60-15 is a compact, five-shot J-frame revolver built entirely from stainless steel and chambered for both .357 Magnum and .38 Special +P. This dash-15 variant pairs a 3-inch, partial under-lug barrel with fully adjustable iron sights—features not often found together on a concealable J-frame. An internal key lock and smooth trigger complete a configuration that offers modern safety and shootability while retaining the classic lines of the first regular-production stainless revolver ever introduced.

What’s Included
- Factory owner’s manual
The 3-inch barrel length strikes a balance between concealability and ballistic performance, giving the .357 Magnum cartridge room to develop meaningful velocity while maintaining an easy-to-carry profile.
A shrouded ejector rod and partial under-lug add mass up front, aiding recoil control without making the gun bulky. The satin stainless finish resists corrosion and keeps maintenance simple.
The adjustable rear sight and pinned, serrated ramp front sight enable precise point-of-impact tuning—an uncommon capability on most small-frame revolvers, especially those intended for carry.
Synthetic pebble-texture finger-groove grips provide a secure, hand-filling purchase. The external hammer supports both double-action and single-action fire, giving the shooter flexibility for defensive or target roles.
Built in Springfield, Massachusetts, the Model 60-15 showcases the versatility that has kept the Model 60 line in continuous production since 1965, now updated with an internal key-lock safety and modern materials.
