pictures of revolvers w/out flutes in the cylinders. i know unfluted and fluted cylinders have got to be purely cosmetic differences, but i really like the looks of an unfluted cylinder. looked for one for a long time, then gave up. saw triple x the other night and seems he had one (s&w 629 maybe?) all "high teched up" with C-more sight and other crap.

anyhow, think its rekindled my want for a stainless unfluted revolver...maybe one with a slab-sided barrel...hmmm

what are my choices, unfluted and slab sided? maybe in 4'' or 5'' barrels.

lets see some pics...

oh yes, like that.

just want one in 357, 41, or 44 mag...

can you remove the comp from the barrel? is it a 4'' barrel?

that really is beautiful. i hesitate to ask how much it set you back...

Here's another, less fancy Smith with an unfluted cylinder. Rescued from a pawn shop but unfortunately not before some gunsmith wannabe butchered the front sight (sigh).

The best looking unfluted cylinder I've seen to date is on the Ruger Bearcat: it's engraved. I'd guess the engraving is stamped rather than truly engraved, but it's mighty pretty.
