Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Smith & Wesson 331 Airlite Ti Chiefs Special is a .32 H&R Magnum, double-action revolver built on the round butt alloy j magnum frame with 3 screws, released for production in March of 1999. This model has a six-shot titanium cylinder with a nominal length of 1.59", built like the base model 337 with an exposed hammer built like a Chiefs special. Featuring a .240" checked hammer with a .312" smooth combat trigger. This model was pictured in the 1999 catalog as having a pinned black ramp front sight, however after testing, S&W found that the point of aim and point of impact did not match and changed the front sight to a forged front sight with a lower profile to match point of impact to the point of sight. Pinned front-sight revolvers were prototypes only.
This model has a barrel shroud with a threaded barrel inside and is not attached in the normal manner, the shroud is fitted to the frame with an alignment pin, and the barrel is threaded thru the shroud and tightened to the frame with a special wrench which engages the rifling. The barrel shroud is marked ".32 H&R MAG" on the right side with "Smith & Wesson" on the left and has the titanium atomic symbol with 22 electrons on the side plate with "Airlite Ti". Shipped in a jewelry-style fitted case with Uncle Mikes Boot Grip or a DymondWood grip. A 3-inch version was planned but never produced, in 2001, the internal key lock system was introduced on 1 variation.
