Talk about Smith Perfection X2! Thanks Mackay. To my mind, the 29-5 Classic DX's were the last of the truly fine M29's S&W made: all the endurance package upgrades, but still with the forged hammer and trigger; drilled and tapped for a scope, but no internal lock.

The .41 is great, but logistics are easier with the .44 Mag. Best, Expat "There are no dangerous weapons. There are only dangerous men." - Robert Heinlein

Bugger Campfire Outfitter Joined: May 2014 Posts: 10,392 NE South Dakota	I've had a few Ruger Super Blackhawks. The one I have now I could shoot 2" groups at 100 yards with cast bullets back in 1985. (Laying on my back and using my leg as a rest.) I love all but two of my Smiths including one I don't have anymore (57). 22's, 38's, 357's and a 41. I've had two Pinned and recessed 29's. I've had little luck getting either to shoot accurately. I sold the first one cheap. I asked S&W if I could send the one I have now in to them. They gave me a very negative answer. Now I've got that one on a local auction site (no internet sales). I'm planning on a new Super Redhawk in 44 mag. I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

One of these days I'll find the 357 in like condition to round out the collection. Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.
