I have the Tracker you mentioned in 45 colt (pre-judge). I only modified the trigger with new lighter springs and have the trigger pull close to what my smiths are--but not as nice, yet maintaining reliability. Factory DA pull was so heavy it was all I could do to pull it. It is a five shot and that makes it a little better to carry (thickness and IWB). The smith is a six shot, so may need to carry by another means besides IWB. But at 10 oz lighter--the smith may be the winner for me in the carry department. The Taurus is as accurate as anything out there--from my experience--and I really like the gun. Question for the 329 guys: How are they holding up to a lot of rounds? I would not mind having one--for a carry gun in non-urban environments--Which is the same roll my Taurus is filling now---May have to find a better excuse to buy this one.
