Porting the barrel of a semiauto almost always entails also porting the slide, as shown in the post above me and in this photo of my Omega LSP: Without that, I am not certain that you will see any benefit, unless you go with a longer barrel and port the portion that extends beyond the slide...

That's a different model and not a Lew Horton version. They're still nice shooters. This is a pair (one heavily modified) of the ones you have:

To which contour are you referring? I like this one: It is a modern rendition of the classic Model 27 profile:

+1 to the PMK. I have one for a 3" N-frame and my 242. It is perfect for this size revolver.

IWB is doable if your pants have the slack in them. OWB is far more comfortable for me. If you go OWB, the ubiquitous photographers vest or some other cover garment becomes de rigeur. I like the Sparks PMK for a sub 3" revolver:

That design doesn't sound very concealable. My personal favorite for OWB carry of short barreled revolvers is the PMK from Milt Sparks.

Your best bet is to build your own. Everything you mentioned (except the fixed sight frame) can be done aftermarket. You can even approximate the fixed sights with what I consider to be a better option: the C&S Extreme Duty version. I don't know why you would prefer Tenifer to plain...

What are the dimensions on the Talon? I have Ryan's "Crash Axe": It is 18" from top to bottom and 6" from the hammer to the blade edge?

Exactly. It looks like this: The ring along the outer edge of the cylinder allows the case rims to provide headspace with or without the moonclips installed. Rick

My general course of action in this situation is to pick up another SAK. You can never have too many.

I wasn't aware that there was any other way to clean a trout. I have this really nice trout knife from a guy in Gentry, AR....

The other thing to keep in mind is that INFI is the specific alloy coupled with a very specific heat treat recipe that was developed by Jerry Busse. But Jerry is not immune to marketing-speak. See Swamp Rat's SR101 (aka 52100) and Scrapyard's SR77 (aka S-7) for examples thereof. Rick (a bit...

According to the online law archives for MN, caliber and cartridge length are the issues: https://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/statutes/?id=97B.031 The bold sections were annotated by me.

Two 3" 44 magnums (chromed 29 on the left and 629 on the right): Meprolights on the 29, C&S Extreme Duty fixed on the 629. I prefer the C&S, but they need to be set up for the load you intend to always shoot.

That is the Cylinder&Slide Extreme Duty sight. They are a drop in for the newer frames with the rounded sight base. Meprolights on the left, C&S on the right.

First time I have ever heard that. The name I recall is Distinguished Combat Magnum as opposed to the original Combat Magnum.

Depending on my mood, it will be one of these: They're both 629-4 models, with the endurance package. The 3" version has been given Cylinder & Slide fixed sights and some other action work. The 6.5" Classic Power Port is stone cold stock. I had initially mounted a 2X scope on it for...

You're welcome. While I have ordered a couple holsters directly from Tony and Company, I got this particular copy from Craig and Audrey at Lightning Arms: http://www.lightningarms.com/products.htm You might drop them a line/call and see if they have one in stock. Rick

This is a 629-4 Backpacker in a Milt Sparks PMK: For me, this is the perfect packing holster for a revolver this size. Rick

Here is an early post-war advertisement for the gun that became the Model 27:
