My whole life I have been a 1911 guy and have my Holy Grail gun (several times over) in that style. When my Dad passed, I received all his Smiths. I had always admired the .44 Mag from the Dirty Harry movies and when a friend offered to sell me his 629 with an 8” tube, I jumped on it. As always, when I really get interested in something I researched the history. In looking into the .44 Mag, and came across Elmer Keith. From then on I had to have a M29 with a 4” tube and Magnas. This became my (current) Holy Grail gun. A few months ago, I traded my M25-5 for this M29-2 with forum member Lucky Derby. I added some Kurac mangnas and here it is. Now on to the next one!
