Two pluses - the 66 and 69 in 4.25" barrels, so our Canadian friends can enjoy them, and the relocation of "Smith & Wesson" to the left side of the barrel. Seeing that on the right side bugs me, for no explainable reason. A possible minus - forcing cone issues on both the above; perhaps the two-piece barrel addressed this.
Agree with the forcing cone issue on the 69. That's the first thing I thought when I saw .44 Magnum L-frame. The primary reason I want one is that I don't see that gun being manufactured for very long....and it's darn neat to see ".44 Combat Magnum" stamped on the side of a barrel
