Hello everyone. I'm Jerry from Michigan. I just picked up
my first Dan Wesson today. It's a 744v with an 8 inch barrel.
I haven't gotten a chance to shoot it yet, but everything looks ok with it.
I'm looking for a 4 inch barrel and shroud in stainless.
What holster will work with this? Does anyone make
one in kydex? How do I add pictures?

Jerry,  Welcome and the 744 you will find is great shooter!  The 4" is something many search search for and few find.   Pictures can be added by clicking the tree in the above menu bar and going through a few steps.  Holsters can be found depending on how you have to carry.  Look around tons of info on here as well as some great pics.

welcome aboard!

Looks at the "FAQ's" area about halfway down this screen, on the right. There is some pic posting instructions, plus a link to DW, where you can buy a 4" barrel for your 744.

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

Jerry, welcome to DWF. I'm a transplanted Michigander (Farmington). I bought my first gun/handgun/DW from Dunhams in Pontiac.

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.

Welcome to the forum.  There is a lot of great info and many good people here.  See https://www.danwessonforum.com/forum/general-messages/tips-for-good-gun-photos especially posts 4 & 5 for pic posting tips.  Looking forward to cool-pics.  (Funny, I wasn't a pic hound at all until I came here.)

Welcome Jerry.

Enjoy your new toy and good luck finding a 4 inch BA, unless you buy a new one from DW.

The last was a five shot group at 20 yards, one got away on me. The bottom hole on this one is another five shot at 20 yards.

Thanks. It took a few shots to get it where I wanted it, Then it just kept hitting the same hole. I'm going to have to get some targets set up and see how far out I can go with it.
