A 4 inch .38 Special does not weight that awful much. I would go with one over a snub for the purpouse that you stated. I know a guy that is in his 70's that has bad tendonitis in his elbow that uses a 4 inch revolver. He said he tried the snub, and the 4 inch, and it picked it. He said the main reason was becasue he could see the sights, and shoot it better.
