Yeah me to, been meaning to ask about that one, this thread has so many guns that I'm into, I just can't keep up, but I do want to hear all about this horse pistol

Thanks for the positive remarks! Here's a couple more pics:







It's a PC 629 "Extreme" 12". It's got Bill Wilson sights, I swapped out the original blued sling swivels for the stainless, swapped out a nylon sling for the leather sling, and had Hogue rework a coco bolo stock so I could use the swivels with it. I think that the purpose of the gun was to just get the most out of the .44 mag cartridge as the sights are pretty coarse and blocky, at long ranges the front sight covers quite a bit of the target. For long range shooting I prefer my 10 5/8" 29-3, the sight are a lot finer.
This is a pretty cool gun though, Tackleberry comments are not unusual at the range!
