[QUOTE="MadDogs, post: 2527433, member: 11175"] No lock. It was a gift from my brother when I graduated college in 1980. Hard to see but the barrel is "pinned" which is something S&W quit doing in the early 80's (?) to save money. As well, the cylinder holes are recessed which again is something that S&W stopped doing to cut production costs. Since I have never shot a 4" 44 mag without porting, I could not tell you if it helps or not. My guess is that it does and that it increases the decibel level too. What makes this gun so special is the action job that MagNaPort did. Exceptionally smooth. I have yet to handle any S&W with an action like this. [/QUOTE]
