Good advice here from all.

I have no intention of carrying this gun or using it as my prime home defense gun. I have a Smith and Wesson 686 for that purpose. Its a lot easier to keep a revolver loaded and ready to go if I need it vs. a semi-auto. I like shooting this gun at the range because I'm accurate with it and I really like the look and feel of it. Out of all the hand-guns I've shot I consider it one of my favorite.

So based on what I've been reading, I don't really need a barrel at this time.

What I'm looking at now are:

Grips - I like the rubber Hogue grips with finger grooves, I use them on my 686 and I really like them.

Trigger - Looking at a stainless steel trigger with a lighter pull

Sights - Not sure what direction to go here need some advice.

There was some mention of an extractor and magwell.

I've rarely had feed problems unless I'm using MagTech ammo or I let someone shoot it and they limp wrist it so it jams.

Not sure what the mag well will buy me need some education on this.

Thanks again!
