I'm not sure about carrying a N frame Smith for concealed carry. It might work with a narrow belt holster under a loose fitting shirt. As for comfort, I wore a Smith & Wesson 625 exposed when I worked at B&B sales in Westminister. California. The pistol was so comfortable that at the end of one shift I walked to my car and drove to a 7-11 before I realized that I was still packing. Using a .44 Magnum might endanger by standers when the bullet exits the target. Hand loads in the .44 special range would be prefered. I have a Smith modle 29 that is fourty-seven years old that has had thousands of rounds shot through it, most all at full power. I had it inspected at at Magna Port and I was told that the cylinder/ forcing cone gap is still within specs and it still locks up soild. The Smith 29 is a reliable and fun gun to shoot. The modern guns are more sturdy then the older modles.
