[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4101119, member: 45773"] I had one, too, in a 6" barrel. I wasn't fond of the nickel or the barrel length. I sent it to S&W for a 4" barrel and a refinish in their best blue. No 4" barrel available so I got a 5". The bluing on that gun when it returned to me was the most incredibly beautiful gun finish I've ever seen. It was so amazing I called and was finally able to speak to the guy who did the work. He claimed he'd been working for the company since Smith & Wesson were still there. He did incredibly good work. I tried to talk him into working his blue magic on a Colt New Service but he said no can do... I was so disappointed. This would've been in the mid-2000s and I think it cost me a whopping $165 including shipping both ways. But, like the idiot I am, I sold that gun. I did replace it with a gorgeous 29-2 4". So there's that. Still have that one. I'm not THAT stupid. [/QUOTE]
