1957 Ruger..... ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/247896.jpg) Using Mac's suggested loads of 8.0 and 10.0 grains of Unique, 930/230 grain LBT and 1150/260 Keith That is a fne looking Flattop! That thing just begs to be shot at big Idaho Jackrabbits! I know a guy who would take great care of it for you!

I almost sprung for a set of camos, they look like what Lonewolf McQuade would have had on his 629. But as far as I could see they were only offered in the large size and I like the smalls better. Why bother when the current rubber round to square butt grips with S&W logo are available? These are the ones S&W sells on current revolvers, best combo of comfort recoil management and conselability. Because, despite how comfortable they may be, they are the most sterile-looking, personality-lacking grips S&W has ever had the audacity to put on a gun and are an embarrassment to the S&W name.

Here's the latest .44 Mag that I lucked into recently. First (and only) year production of the 629-2 Mountain Revolver. The price that I paid would have been excellent even had it not included those gorgeous cocobolo Craig Spegels, which were just the icing on the cake. ![[Linked Image from i.ibb.co]](https://i.ibb.co/cyg8g0H/S-amp-W-629-2-Mountain-Revolver-right.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.ibb.co]](https://i.ibb.co/RpFmqBJ/S-amp-W-629-2-Mountain-Revolver-left.jpg)

LOL, RJM really is (seriously) an incredibly generous man. My kids constantly receive things from "Uncle Bob). Plus I have picked his brain more times than I can recall, as well as borrowing guns for work projects.

I replaced rosewood finger grooved grips with Hogue monogrip because that is only kind available to me. These are much uglier then what S&W are currently using. Big improvement in shooting enjoyment.

While I wouldn't personally consider a rubber Hogue Monogrip to be as ugly as the current S&W offering, they indeed don't win any beauty contest, either. That's why I typically buy Hogue's hardwood grips when looking for that style (Hogues fit me well).

Surely, after 20 years, you can show us a pic of said revolver, In your hand. Does it look like this? ![[Linked Image from media-cdn.redwolfairsoft.com]](https://media-cdn.redwolfairsoft.com/catalog/product/cache/a7c78eb81fa3ed03f1268b94ea22394c/T/N/TNK-4537212011235-9L.jpg)

Nickel 29-2. Posted this in another thread last summer. White blotches are Mother's Mag and Aluminum Polish that I hadn't buffed off yet. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/LnBCZGg.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/fzihpQx.jpeg)
