Most Night Guards have a replaceable Stainless Steel Blast Guard. I have heard of some of the Magnums blowing the Blast Guard out of the gun, and needing it replaced, which S&W has.

I have a 310NG in 40 S&W and 10mm. It is a great revolver for concealed carry. I really like the 325NG also. The 325NG is a 45acp N Frame.
To me the N Frame Night Guards feel more like carrying a steel K Frame snub.
As far as I know the 310NG, 325NG, and Governor are the only ones that load with moon clips.

I would not have a problem with a 41 or 44 Magnum, but full house factory ammo would be a little brutal I am afraid. I am also sure that Buffalo Bore and probably others make carry ammo that is shootable in a Night Guard, you just need to look for it.
