They do.342 AirLite Ti factory refinished in PD black.![]()
I was just referring to any j-frame centennial with a ti cylinder. Personally, I'd like to see an alloy cylinder centennial j-frame.Correction, the did. The 342PD and Airlite Ti haven't been made in years.
The 342 also has a slightly different (lighter) barrel, too. However, you will miss the extra 3 ounces when you shoot hot loads, I promise. When I shoot hot loads in my 642, it's difficult, but with the 342, it's like someone is hitting the end of the barrel with a baseball bat. The little sucker tries to get away every shot and it hurts my hand after a few.
What kind of grips do you use? I went for looks with my first j-frame grip purchased and got a beautiful set of black ebony secret service wood grips and they shot just as you described - baseball bat to the bbl. The uncle mike's were better, but the best have been hogue j-frame bantams. I could literaly shoot all day with them no worries.The 342 also has a slightly different (lighter) barrel, too.

I got my cylinder a few days ago. I can't get my apart. Any tips?
