I know there are a lot of post about the new small frame 629, but I have not been able to find any posts on the new large frame pc 629.
I think it looks pretty good

Product: Model 629

Small and large frame 629s?

I thought all 629s (new and old) were N frames.

I think the new one everyone is talking about is a 5 shot L frame.

I believe the new one is a model 69
A 5 shot L frame.

So is the Op asking about the N frame or the L frame?

I am talking about the new N frame model 629 in ss and with built in rails. check out the link it will take you straight to the gun.

I saw photos of it a week or so ago, but can't quite decide what to make of it. Looks like fluted barrel in a rather more pleasing profile than some of their lighter weight 629 PCs. So why not a fluted cylinder?

The under gun light would be primarily for hog hunters, I guess. Too far forward for "defensive" use.

The cantilevered bolt-on upper rail just doesn't make sense to me. It's already drilled and tapped on the top strap. Why not use that? Or do an integral rail or mount on the barrel. Maybe low enough that a reddot could co-witness the iron sights?

I don't dislike it right off the bat, but it just seems like there's more to be had along these lines.

Probably one of those revolvers that I'd buy used, given the opportunity, but not something for which I'd go searching.

The new Model 69, on the other hand is fairly exciting! And leading to dreams of the same in .41 Mag...
