45 Colt Mountain Gun

[41special]

If they come out with this one next I'm going to pick one up. Hopefully they'll have all their production issues ironed out. And will have the correct cylinder throat, forcing cone & bore diameters to shoot cast bullets well right out of the box

Have a tote full of 45 Colt ammo and components from an old SAA I sold off last winter.

Come on S&W let's get it on!

I am glad I bought the original one and still prefer it but so happy they are considering making more of the new design

I would like one of the older pre-lock 625 Mountain Guns. Mine is a 625-9 post lock. It's odd to say, but I think I could resist a new one pretty easily. It seems to me they both pretty much have the same internals, with the exception of the side lock, which I've already removed from mine. Aside from a still existing degree of aesthetics, it doesn't seem worth the effort in my case. The 686 Mountain Gun...that one could tempt me. I love the idea of a nice L frame without the full lug barrel.

I am content with my 625-6 MG, so I won't be looking for a new one from S&W; however, I am looking at one of the new 4" Anacondas in 45 Colt.

Nice looking & like the porting as well. I had one of the older pre-lock Mt Guns in 41 Magnum. It was a nice piece.

I'm hoping they make a 41 mag in the new mountain guns....

My 629-9MG is a fine specimen, and I'm in on a 45C 625MG, too!

Pretty sure they will

I have a 45LC mtn gun from the first run,,,,,,,,Shoots good........I won't buy a gun with holes in the barrel.........Major turn off for me.

I carried my 625-6 for many miles hiking biking and canoeing in grizzly country. I'm glad they are making these mountain guns without locks so other people can buy them again.

 

[GFU]

I am hoping for a 686 Mountain Lite with out a lock!,

 

[41special]

GFU, great picture!

You look like a reloader, what loads that thing like??

 

[saintarctangent]

Is the 45 Colt mountain gun limited to cowboy action loads, or can you use the higher power modern loads?

 

[Doug M.]

It probably has the same limits as any recent S&W .45 Colt. It is not likely limited to the Cowboy action loads, but I would not use the really stout stuff ("Ruger only" type loads).
