I had a 39 over twenty years ago and it felt and shot great. Traded it for a Glock 19 to get greater capacity and it seems like a step down in every way except capacity. I should get another 39 some...

I definitely want to take a look at one. The trigger mechanism has been totally revised, which is a very good thing, since the original Pythons has triggers that were inferior to S&W's. I'm thinking...

What are the odds that the 14 guns sitting at Davidson's Gun Genie have the newly spec'd throats? This is their second shipment in the last couple of weeks.

In Kuhnhausen's "The S&W Revolvers A Shop Manual 5th Ed." it shows the chamber throats dimensions being 0.4325" min and 0.4365" max for the 44 Magnum. Surprised me the max was so large especially...
