If I was S&W I would just put them into all the SC pistols and be done. I thought originally it was done to combat the 357 125gr flame cutting which I heard occurs quicker in SC/AL alloy.
Interesting that you note:
"3. The abscence of a blast shield in a scandium framed revolver with a titanium cylinder chambered in 357 Mag is indicative of what?"
My 386SC which fits that same criteria does have a flame shield. I wonder if they had problems and added the shields later.
