Could someone please help me out with the specifics of this pistol?

The way I load nowadays, I can tell little difference between the performance of the two cartridges. My days of pushing the outer limits of are in the rvm.

So when I’m picking it is usually done because of the platform rather than the cartridge.

I do rather enjoy the S&W N frames and wish they produced more variety in 45colt, but it is what it is. So when I’m looking at DA it is usually 44mag when SA it is generally 45colt. That being said I do have a dandy 25-5 that I have owned for over 30 years and I covet mightily.

You should PM ET for specifics as I could be mistaken. IIRC that is a Georgia Highway Patrol Commemorative model that came out back in the late eighties or nineties. It features an unfluted cylinder in 45 Colt caliber with the 5" barrel and was one of a limited run.
