I wonder how they got enough forcing cone thickness to put .44 Magnum in the L frame.
I was thinking the same. Didn't the K-frames have trouble with the .357 for that exact reason, hence the creation of the L-frame?
I'd like to be interested the new offerings, but I keep having problems with the only newer Smith that I own. My 686-6 has just started light striking on double action. This after maybe 3000 rounds through it, about half of them .38 Specials. This will be the second trip back to the factory for me. Smith's customer service rep said I would have a shipping label via e-mail a few days after calling...and it's been about two weeks. It's not the end of the world, but for what Smith is charging for new revolvers, well, I'm not terribly impressed.
