I picked up a 629-4 MG a few days ago. I have been into .44s for couple of years and this was the first MG I've handled. The weight and balance difference between the MG and the standard 629 is glaringly obvious. I like it a lot. I put about 60 240g. and 250g. Specials through it 2 days ago and kept them inside an index card at 30' after a few sight adjustments. good enough for me.
