I believe it - at least until next week!
it will just be a different j frame...
Anyone else find it ironic that someone named "glock em down" is so passionate about his J-frame?
If you knew him personally as some of us do here, you'd understand.
I think my concealed carry gun is actually an "I" frame S&W. It is a .32 Hand Ejector six-shot revolver with a 3" barrel. I load .32 S&W Long ammo for it with a 90 grain Keith-type cast bullet and I know it is a little marginal, so my other wheel gun for carry is a Model 15 K-Frame loaded with 125 grain HP bullets @ +P level. I guess the ideal carry gun for me would probably be a nickel "J" Frame Model 13 S&W with a 3" barrel. I see some pretty good deals on Gunbroker for one, but I just never run on to one in person.
I have a Ruger P89 hi-cap 9mm that I keep in the house, but I am just more comfortable with a revolver. And when I am bumming around in the woods on the weekends a Ruger Single-Six .32 H&R mag revolver fits perfectly in the right front pocket of a pair of Carhart overalls.

Model 13 is a K-Frame in .357 magnum. As to your "I" framed gun does the ejector rod have a large knurled head or is the entire rod straight? Also how many screws on the frame i.e. 5-4-3? If its 4 to 3 it could very well be a J instead of an I frame, and a pre-model or model marked 30 if it has a round butt grip. If its a square butt grip, its a model 31.
Ouch! 
I messed up - I meant a nickel model 36 S&W .38 with a 3" barrel & round butt. Thanks for helping me past me senior moment.

Whats the issue with Gabe Suarez? I havent been on his forum much but I have gotten his newsletter fairly regularly. I watched a pretty good edged weapon defense video that he did. From what I have seen, other than all the sales pitches for his classes, he seems to have some pretty good insight as far as "train like you fight, fight like you train". If I am wrong or if there is more that I should be aware of, someone please help me see the light.
If your Google-fu is strong, you should be able to find lots of stuff on why Gabe doesn't have a good rep. Most of the problem is his own doing. He's not the first nationally recognized instructor to get into trouble with the law, and probably won't be the last.
That doesn't affect what he has to teach, but it does cast a negative shadow over his operation. There are so many instructors out there that I see no reason to go to one with issues unless I've been to everyone else first and still wanted more.
He is also known to steal others writting and work, and claim it for his own. When challenged instead of owning up to it, he bad mouths the person, makes threats, and if they are on his little forum, well you can guess from there what happens next.
