Better? Well, I never had any mechanical problems from the Taurus 445 I previously owned (it was sold because it didn't fit me well and I didn't care for its DAO trigger), but when the time came to sell it I had a difficult time finding anyone who'd give me more than $100 for it. S&W will retain it's value much better than a Taurus or Rossi. Also, Taurus and Rossi have notoriously poor customer service while S&W's is some of the best in the industry. When you buy a revolver, you pay for more than just the gun.
