This 329PD belongs to S&W's AirLite lineup and uses a scandium-alloy frame with a titanium alloy cylinder to keep weight down while maintaining a large N-frame profile. It is chambered in .44 Rem Magnum and also accepts .44 Special, with a 6-round capacity.
The revolver features a two-piece barrel system with a stainless steel liner and alloy shroud, factory 4 in length (approx. 4.13 in). It includes a full-length underlug, an ejector rod shroud, and a knurled ejector rod tip. The round-butt grip frame comes fitted with black textured synthetic grips, and a finger-grooved hardwood grip is included but not installed.
Sights consist of a pinned HiViz fiber-optic front and an adjustable rear, providing a bright, fast front sight picture. The action is double-action/single-action, and the revolver incorporates S&W's internal key lock safety feature.
Finished in two-tone black/gray, the scandium-alloy frame wears a matte black finish while the titanium cylinder is matte light gray. Identifying details include a yoke cut marked "329 PD" and "Ti" rollmarks on the cylinder.
