I'm a die hard 629 and 29 guy, and always will be, but I've always kicked myself for not getting one of the early Anacondas. So when they came around again, I jumped on one last year. While S&W's will always be my favorite, I'm hooked on that Anaconda and find myself shooting it about once per week. As mentioned the trigger isn't great, but I shoot it about as well as any of my S&W's, with much better triggers, so I don't think I'm going to worry about it.
My front sight was too low also. I couldn't find a hunting style red ramp available in the height I wanted, but I found that a slight modification of a cheap blade for a S&W fit great - and it looks right when installed.
I almost feel like a trader enjoying a Colt so much... but it seems to beg to tag along on every trip to the range.
Me too, I really like my Kodiak. Feel kinda bad for my 5” 629-3.

I also was not satisfied with the factory front sight, so I took a .300” SDM gold dot made for a smith and milled the base to .180” and the tenon to fit the Colt. With the rear sight raised 3-4 clicks, it puts 240s dead center at 7 yds.
