Hello to everyone,

Reading this topic I realized that most of us like the same kind of firearms.... [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've had a few of those S&W 44's over the years: 6.5in DIRTY HARRY, 4in NICKLE PLATED, 6in M629, 6in M29....

I do still have a 4inch M29...a great winter carry gun & hunting gun...

BUT my best memories are from a 3inch M629 ( round butt limited run ) I used to carry a couple of years back as a primary piece when I was working risky assingments ( backup gun was a Commander 45...)It needed weekly practice to master and that just added to the fun...Favorite ammo: Silvertips as they are loaded about 3/4 power of a full power load and thus controlable for follow up shots...

I've always liked those S&W 44's and with always have one close by...
