I would keep the Smith. BTW, the Ruger isn't really beefier, its the investment casting that makes it seem that way. It has to be thicker to equal the strength of forged steel. (or so I'm told)
I have shot both and like both but there is just something about the S&W that I like better.
Actually grew up with that claim as well. It was as false then as it is today.
