I have a S&W 29 Classic with an incredible action job. However the barrel is 6.5" and is muzzle heavy. I would like to have it 4-5" and maybe ported. Would it be better to buy a new barrel, get it ported then have my smith switch barrels or to have my smith cut the existing barrel and port it? Would a muzzle brake work better than porting? Should I just buy a new 44 mag with a shorter barrel and sell the old one? Any advice is appreciated?
