I like my 5.5" barrel on my Pietta 58' it's handy, quite practical & very carry friendly & I can see a use for a 4" barrel model like in the pictures that Smokin_Gun has there but to me I have to say that a smaller barrel on a Remington clone doesn't appeal to me in 2 ways both of which have already been stated earlier.

lose the look,

I agree with both posters.
