Jerry, welcome to HuntChat!
If you can shoot the M19 well in double action mode, use it. Only hits count, and what you can hit with instinctively, in a hurry, is what you should carry. That's my .02$ (and worth exactly what ya paid for it  )

If you are familiar with it, then I say carry it. The only problem that I can see is you might have trouble finding a 'concealable' holster for that 4" barrel. As far as a semiauto being "better" than a revolver, I think that is a crock! I feel just as well armed when carrying a Colt Detective special and a couple of Bianchi speed strips.
My Uncle had a M19 as his service revolver when he was on the sheriffs department; it was the first handgun I ever shot. As far as statistics go, I think I read somewhere that most gunfights are over (intruder dead or flees) in something like 2.3 shots, IIRC. Good luck with your CCW course!
