I've been looking around for a Smith & Wesson, Model 29 the last few weeks. I happened upon a very nice Astra Model 44 for sale. I've seen them from time to time and I believe they are kind of a clone of the 29. Though I have had no experience with this model, the Astras I've owned and/or shot have been nicely made. (My father was an Astra fan back in the day.)
Anyway, my "gut" is still saying go with, and spend a little more for, a Model 29. And I'm also not sure on the parts situation for the alternative, but it is unlikely to be as readily available as the Smith.
Thoughts on this one? Thanks!
