MacKay i should'nt admit it but i will. few years ago i acquired a smith29 classic in 4inch. Really didn't pay for it, it was courtesy of cabella's. Pretty revolver, but it isn't quite as good in some ways as the old ones, but it does have a pinned on front site. so, I went to the smith website and ordered one of those red fiber optic front sites like come on that model with the nuclear thing on the side, one of the lightweight smiths, and installed it on the 29. Then got rid of the grips, too thin, the new revolver grips come with and put on a set of hogues. Like it a lot better now. I don't think it so much works as a target gun with that optic, but boy is it fast to acquire.
