Well, I no longer own it, but back int eh 80's I packed a Charter Arms 44 Spcl Bulldog. Shot a very large dog with it, and almost the owner. Dropped it in one shot - there is a story about somewhere around this particular forum. Only thing I ever shot outside a hunting situation/in a Defensive situation.

I also no longer own it, but had one of the S&W 629 Classic Hunters back in the 90's that sure was nice. it had been Mag-Na-Ported, but I could not get too used to those heavy loads pounding the web of my hand. I did not really give it time to develop my shooting skills, and subsequently sold it for Goodness knows what. I do confess openly here, the gun was better than me!

Those are some gorgeous S&W's! I do lust for another N-frame gun, like mayde an early P&R'd 25 in Long Colt, with the gorgeous blue and 6.5" barrel. That jaw-dropping deep blue, combined with the way the barrel tapers just ahead of cylinder and the shroud under there, makes my mouth water and heart skip a beat, it really does

Tell me about that shoulder rig, Travis. I like the looks of it.

It's the Simply Rugged Chesty Puller rig, but the actual holster is a custom that I had a local saddle maker build. He molded it to that revolver, and he did one hell of a job.

I love that rig but I am ordering one of these real soon. I think it will be better for backpacking in general.

I've been carrying my old 1076 around in a Jackass rig I bought several years ago. Haven't carried a shoulder holster in a long time.

The hillpeoplegear looks like a good way to carry inconspicuosly, for sure.

I'm going to take a look at the Chesty Puller rig.

Thanks!

Yes sir.

I have the Simply Rugged sourdough pancake holster for my Flattop. It's good leather for the money FYI.

You can buy the Chesty Puller with "adapters" that allow its use with most other holsters I believe.

Yeah, I bought that for my Flattop originally. But any holster with three slots can be made to work with the Chesty Puller Rig.
