First let me state that I love my 329PD 4" revolver. I've had it for about 13 years now and shoot it a good bit. However, you need to keep your eye on the top strap shield for a groove that will wear in from gas cutting. When it gets real pronounced, either apply some J-B Weld in the groove or send the gun back to Smith and they will replace the shield for free. I've had mine back to the factory twice before I started applying J-B Weld. Others who have tried the J-B Weld have claimed that it did not work for them. My guess is that they didn't use the high temp version of J-B Weld. YMMV also! Good luck with your new revolver.
