Had a 7.5" .44 mag,it's gone and also owned S&W Model 57 with a 8-3/8" barrel it's gone. I like the short barrels because easy carry and lighter. The .41 Magnum in the gun safe is a RBH with 6.5" barrel and that's as long as I would go,would like one in a 4-5/8" barrel. HINT HINT Christmas is around the corner! smile

Agreed on anything bigger than a .44.
