Ordered some boot grips from Badger and a Simply Rugged Pancake holster, along with some cast 300 gr. bullets.
I do, I do
My big bore snubbies:
Group shot of most of the N frames
Jovino .45. Model 25-2
629-3 Carry Comp or Mag Comp from Lew Horton
629-6 Camfour
L Frame 696 (no dash)
Model 610 (its a 3 7/8 inch barrel so its borderline snubby)
Model 325 Nightguard .45 acp

Yes, they can be hard to find.
I finally found one on Gun Broker, in fact I have seen several on GB recently. I paid $409 and that's about what they are still asking for them.

In a previous post, I stated I had two snubs that begin with a "4", but I only posted photos of my Colt NS.
That was a while back, and now, since this thread is still around, I'll show off my other one.
This actually gets carried quite a bit, in a Simply Rugged Sourdough Pancake. A friend of mine, who chops everything from guns to cars, had a gunsmith who specializes in target rifles trim this to 2.75". Then, he grew bored with it, and for a Ruger SP101 (that I was only into for $300!) and a hundred bucks it became mine. Definitely one of my better trades.
I like it because it's impervious to any weather I carry it in, it'll handle any load I decide to put through it, and it's big enough to handle anything I might encounter. The group photo is him with his fellow .44's, a 629-4 and a Contender.

Some of mine
Since I have no "big bore" snubbies (defined as bigger than .357") , I'll just share the snubbies I do have and carry. I used to have a variety of them to include Model 29 and 629 versions in 3", I never found them practical to carry. I use Remington 125 grain Golden Sabers in the L Comp, and carry it in a Sparks PMK. In the Model 27-2 I use American Eagle 158 grain JSP.
Model 27-2, 3.5", Spegel grips in Thad Rybka holster
Model 586+ L-Comp with Spegel grips. My favorite carry gun.

Very enviable collection that you have there Dan. I would love to find one of the 657-3 versions for myself.
