I got it cheap. Can't decide whether to keep it as a belly gun, or whether to replace the hammer, trigger, and barrel to make it a correct 5" DPD gun again.
Stocks would need to be replaced, unless I just want it to be a "pimp gun".

In a way, I'd like to contour the front sight, fix the misfire situation, replace the grips with some repops from Vintage, and keep it as a belly gun.

Barrel measures 2-29/32" long, from front face of cyl to muzzle.
Just under 2-15/16".

I think the misfire situation is probably because someone tweaked the hammer leg of the mainspring for a lighter pull.
It has a seriously sweet DA pull.
It also has push-off in SA.
It has an SA pull like a target gun.
The push-off is not an ideal situation, but I don't ever shoot it SA, anyway.
Thought about removing the SA sear surface to make it DAO.
I know what to do with it- fix the misfire problem and then....shoot it!!! It doesn't need anything else.
