I have heard there are both 2 and 3 slot shrouds for 10" 44 revolvers. True or False? Does anyone have pictures they can publish here? Thanks

To be honest there were no slotted shrouds (from the factory) for any length or finish .44 magnums.  The slotted shrouds were all made for the SuperMags (.357 Max., .375, .414, and .445).

The shrouds were available in blue or stainless for the 357 Max; blue only for the .375; stainless only (I think) for the 414; and stainless and blue for the 445.

The 8 inch slotted shrouds all had 2 slots on each side. 

The 10 inch shrouds had 3, 4, or 5 slots. there were 3 slots on each side, and some also had 1 or 2 slots on the bottom.

I hope this answers your question.

Here are some examples:

BTW, welcome to the DWF. This is a great place to learn all about your DW revolver.  Many knowledgeable people here who can help.  However, they will also feed your DWAS, and that can get expensive.

Okay, I just can't hold back. Blue 414  V8S..............Smile. I realize it is a one of a kind but maybe not the only blue 414 slotted shroud.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
