That is JUST like the one that lives under my pillow. I love these guns. If you can whack up the nerve to let fly with full power Remington .44 Mags this huge blue flame jumps about a foot out of the barrel and it thunders like a cannon. Excellent guns. Too bad S&W doesn't make them regularly.
how about a 44 magnum show

Sorry I don't have a pic with just the .44mag.
Top is a .357/9mm Convertable and bottom is a .44mag Super Blackhawk Hunter.

M16....forty four 44s is a very cool number...makes me wonder how many 357s you have?
A 5" Classic, my favorite .44 shooter:
I don't think I've seen a picture of a MagnaClassic yet:
And finally the hodgepodge of all four of mine:

I am not a particular fan of ported guns. However, there is no doubt that it reduces muzzle rise and makes this a more pleasant outfit. It shoots as expected (I can keep most shots on a playing card at 100 yards from a rest).
My standard practice load is a home cast 250 gr Keith bullet (Mihec clone of the H&G #503 ahead of 23.0 grs of H110. My hunting load is 24.0 grs of H110. I have taken several head of corn fed whitetail deer with these loads.

Chopped Redhawk
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and this beholder thinks you have turned this Redhawk into an incredibly handsome sidearm. All you need, and nothing you don't!
Great thread, everyone.

What a great thread.
I can't tell you how many of these I have searched the past couple of years.
I like the other calibers also but spend the majority of my time fiddling with the .44 Magnum. Whether it be reloading, cleaning, shooting, buying or selling, you name it, the majority of my 'gun' time is spent with the .44 Magnum.
Nice! Who is the maker of the LSWC gas check bullet in the photo?
Great Guns!
Late to the party, but here are mine:
629-3, Magnaported with Trijicon night sights
29-4, stags by Grashorn
629-5
PC 629-4 Quadport
PC 629-4 Light Hunter
And, of course, the nice 29-2 c. 1978
As I've found out, it's easy to like 44 mags. Nice guns, all!

Thanks! If you mean the Hunter, it'll shoot anything well. Some better than others of course, but for example, last time I had it out I was shooting with Peppercorn, and we had some over-crimped handloads that were stripping jackets. We were still putting them through one hole at 20 yds.
I've heard that the barrels for these were made by Walther, but I don't know if that is true. It is a very accurate revolver, that I do know!The PC snub is a flamethrower, of course- but the ports work, and I don't stoke it with wrist-breakers anyway. Just a nice shooting gun, for a snub.
Boy, now I'm thinking I better go down to the basement and load some 44!

Sorry about that, yes I was referring to the light hunter, have you benched it at 100, I'm looking for a new deer gun something scope ready and from the PC line, I'm leaning towards that two toned one with the red dot
