Found a pretty good deal a few weeks ago.

I also managed to get a Model 25 barrel a while back. Now the question is, have the Anaconda barrel installed on my Alaskan, or find a model 29 and convert it to .45 colt? The goal is a tuned, properly chambered, 4" .45 colt. With some custom touches. At the end of the day, I'd be time and money ahead just buying a mountain gun, but that's less fun.

I've never seen an N frame Smolt, but I bet it would be cool. You lose close to 2" when setting the barrel up for the conversion from what I've heard, so it would be a snubby.

I wouldn't think there would be much loss at all as the barrel threads are the same from what I've read, but reality may be different. Finding a proper donor Smith M25/ .45 Colt is an issue though as they're pricey. You don't see any rebuild candidates come up for sale, at least I haven't. I thought about doing the conversion on a Redhawk also, that would be more affordable if they're compatible.

I think the loss comes from having to cut off the portion with the ejector rod slot, as they don't line up. That may just be for Rugers though. Use a 629 as the donor, that way you ensure proper chamber spec and they are more commonly available. Reaming the chamber isn't an expensive job when considering the other work.

My same S&W model 29 .44 magnum that I posted earlier but now I changed the grip to a new Pachmayr rubber grip.

I had been using Pachmayr grips for a very long time since around the early 1970s on most of my target pistols.

This revolver was a factory blue finish made and bought new in 1971 but in the early 1990s matte chrome finished and barrel was ported by Magnaport.

YMMV
