SN 79482 was built in 1893 and originally sported 36" barrels per Serialization Book. Look to see if barrels have been shortened. Book is occasionally wrong or there was a second set or barrels or even replacement barrels.
What is the frame size and how heavy are the barrels?
Chambers might or might not have been lengthened depending on reliability of gunsmiths measurements. Seek better professional advice and if the gun is OK'd shoot low pressure rounds and not max loads.
