Does anyone know if I can replace the 2" barrel with a 4" barrel on a 65' Detective Special. I inherited the gun from my dad when he passed away, but I find it only accurate at most to about 10 yards. I really like the vintage revolver style, and I would like to carry it with my CCW. Or would I be better off putting it in my gun cabinet and buying a current Revolver. Are these older guns worth anything. I'm sure my dad only shot it a couple times when he first bought it so it is GREAT shape.

Thank You
