I looked around and didn't see anything on this revolver. I am interested in buying one, but would like other's opinions. I realize recoil might be a little "stiff", but recoil has never bothered me that much in 40 some years of shooting. If this has been asked before, sorry. I am new to the site. Planned to carry a lot, shoot little.
Thanks much

Welcome, you'll find great people and good answers here for the most part. I love the 396NG even though I have had a few problems, see the thread below and on page 3. The recoil is nothing with the factory rubber pachmyer grips and only stings a little with my preferred carry stocks from Spegel. I shoot allot of Georgia arms 200Gr Gold Dots and will reload them when I have enough cases to bother setting up my Dillon for 44spl. There have been several reports of FTF, but this is solved by replacing the factory firing pin with the C&S long pin or others. If you have problems S&W will send you a UPS shipping label for free shipping and will take care of any thing you may have go wrong. This is an easy revolver to carry and shoots fantastic.
Wow , that is absolutely beautiful. I hope I am allowed to say that about a firearm.
If you don't mind my asking, who worked on your gun. I noticed you bobbed the hammer and ported the barrel.
Also, I haven't seen any of the NG's up close. How easy are they to conceal. I am looking at either getting the 315 (I like the lighter recoil of the .38), the 396 or the 325. I'm looking more at the latter two due to performance.
