    Model 629 6" any suggestions on shoulder holsters.

    That chest rig is pretty cool. The range I go to is not used very much, it's an employee range for my company. A shoulder rig would be okay but I can see your point.

    Model 629 6" any suggestions on shoulder holsters.

    I am looking for a shoulder rig for my 629-1 Classic Hunter with a 6 inch barrel. I don't use a scope. It will be used only for shooting at the range. I have no plans on trying to conceal carry that large of a gun. Any one have any suggestions.

    Is it safe to use steel ammo case (wolf ammo)

    I have a Spikes Tactical AR and have shot Tula 223 steel cased with no problems. Before the panic I would usually order brass cased ammo over the internet for around 30 cents a round. I would run into Academy and grab the Tula for $5 for a box of 20 if I was going to make a range trip and...

    JB Weld to raise the front sight blade?

    JB Weld held the bowl on my generator's carburetor together after Hurricane Ivan. So it will probably hold your gunsight.

    Hand Broke on my M500 6.5' broke after 50 rounds

    I could be wrong, but I bet you could have that machined locally. A good machinist might could fix it or make you another one.

    Most ridiculous piece of gear...

    I prefer a 45 ACP as my night stand gun. But if a battle started at my house my Custom 5.56 AR with red dot laser sight and tactical flashlight would be my weapon of choice. Along with my 629-1 Classic hunter for the last 6 shots. As far as the 500 for personal defense. I'm all for the go big...

    Which Version 629 is the best?

    I've got a 1988 629-1 Classic Hunter with the 6" Full Lug Barrel and non fluted cylinder. The guy I bought it from bought it new and used it for Deer Hunting. It is a regular shooter for me as well.

    Why Why Why

    In Alabama you can do cash face to face trades legally. Armslist is a good way to sell a gun local.

    A little "BBQ" gun!

    Move up to a Big Green Egg. It's on the same cloud as a Stainless Smith Revolver in my book.

    Trying to Value Model 10 Never fired

    I seen a model 10 in a local pawn shop Saturday. It looked like it had been fired 1million times with hardly any blue left on it and the lady was like. I'll take 300 out the door. I looked at because, I never pass on looking at a used Smith. But I also was laughing in my mind that was way...

    First trip to an indoor range.

    The range I went to was $15 for as long as you wanted. I shot 150 rounds with 3 guns. I was there a little over an hour and felt I got my money's worth. Since I don't reload it would get very expensive staying for long periods of time.
