Title: Love & Lust at first sight. Anyone have first hand with this gun?
Post by: Pete112288 on July 21, 2014, 05:26:34 PM: So for a while now I have been planning on my next gun being a .44 mag revolver. One that is suitable for hunting with as well as packing on scouting trips. I had been looking around and for a while I had planned on going for one of the Taurus Raging Bull revolvers. Then I saw this thing. I instantly became unresponsive to anything else around me and started to drool :chuckle: I have been researching and reading reviews on it since and they all seem to check out pretty dang well. Now comes the long wait till I have the cash on hand. Come on overtime!!!
Anyone have any experience with it?
Smith and Wesson Model 629 .44 Magnum Hunter

I do however love Ruger and Smith and Wesson Revolvers
