If I started with a 357 Max Supermag frame, Would it be possible to switch out the cylinder and barrel to a 445
and make a 445 supermag ?

Can you, Yes, although the barrel threads are different so it will require custom barrel threads and of course timing of the cylinder. I am sure others will jump in if I forgot something.

Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.

I guessed the threads would probably be different, Timing of the cylinder would be the challenge.

I would sell the 357 max and buy a 445sm.

or keep my 357 max and buy a 445
which is about to happen.
I will never sell my 357 Supermag, I have had it since new.

Yes, an affliction amplified by this forum, and with no 12 step to overcome. They say the first step is admitting you have the problem... But I like it so, I have no problem!

Buying Dans is not SPENDING money, it is reallocating your portfolio. Spending is consumption. Investing is buying with the expectation of appreciation. If only I could get my wife to understand that😕. Actually, she says don't buy so many blue guns. She likes stainless. A keeper for sure.

Mine likes to go to the casino from time to time. When she does I go Dan shopping. When she says anything I break out the newly acquired, and ask her what she brought home. Sometimes she trumps me but usually I have more to show!

I like to think of it as an investment, a 401DW

Exactly!! So far, the money I have invested in DW's has worked out nicely in my favor. I wish I could say that about all my investments.
