[rfo1]

Here are a few S&W big bore revolvers that are part of my small collection.Some are pretty tough to find. I hope you enjoy the descriptions and pictures. Happy collecting.

1.S&W 629 Mountain Revolver. Chambered in .44 magnum this gun features a frosted stainless finish, a lightweight four inch tapered barrel and a chamfered cylinder. One of 5,000 total production, circa 1989. The gun originally shipped with rubber Pachmyers which have been replaced with these Hogues.

2. S&W 629 Classic Hunter. Chambered in .44 magnum this gun features a three inch full lug heavy barrel and an unfluted cylinder. One of 3,200 total production, circa 1989. This gun also shipped with rubber Pachmyers which were replaced with these Hogues with silver S&W medallions.

3. S&W 29. This special edition Lew Horton combat magnum is also chambered in .44 magnum and features a three inch step down barrel and goncalo alves combat grips.One of 5,000 guns, circa 1985.

4. S&W 657. Chambered in .41 magnum this revolver is very hard to find. Not very many of these guns made their way into Canada. One of 5,000 guns, ( perhaps fewer) circa 1986. Features a three inch, half lug barrel and goncalo alves combat grips.

Nice set. I like the 41 mag the best.

Nice collection! I'm envious. If only I'd known the 'classes' were coming in I'd have a couple of those as well.

I love your Mountain Revolver. I looked for one for an ATC gun when I moved to BC but couldn't find one.

Great revolver ####! You know I've never fired a .44 magnum and I've been shooting for twenty-five years.

I always liked the Mountain Gun, but never had the money for one when they were available... I'd LOVE to have one in .45ACP, but I'm not sure they ever made one.

I wish.

Very cool and extremely nice along with fantastic photography. Any difference shooting a 3" over a 4" barrel?

 

[Dench]

I like the S&W 29.

Very nice, you have good taste so a good choice.

Breaks my heart that ill never be able to own any of those beautys.

I got to say when it comes to beauty and ###iness, nothing comes close to a nice revolver. Not a semi out there, maybe a nice 1911 but thats it.

of course this is just my opinion.
