i have the 296s sister gun,the 242 7shot 38spl,i replaced the um grips with hogue bantams and carry it mostly in a ccw vest.recoil with +ps is not a issue at all unlike the lcr where i tolerate 30rds in a practice session.
smith should've made a few more of both
first time i heard of this,awesome
now maybe ill break my fast on il guns with a 325ng
i love smith 45acp wheels and the ng has all the traits of a vest-carry gun but the il bugs me.
