Anybody know when the 431 was introduced and when Taurus discontinued it? I want a 3 inch .44 special revolver, but I don't want an N-frame. I liked the Smith 696, but then S&W discontinued that after a short run and I don't see them anymore. When I do manage to find one, it's $500 used. 431s are a bit easier to find and much less costly. I saw one recently that looked new, but was wearing rather old-looking factory grips. Made me wonder how old this thing was.
I guess I should just give up and get a 445, but I really don't like the 2 inch barrel.
