    Strange FTF on .44 magnum Stealth Hunter

    Gun probs First of all, sorry to hear this is happening to such a nice revolver as I have the same model and love it! It seems as you describe, the cylinder is over rotating and you engage an already stricken cartridge. I'm a revolver novice but maybe mark the suspect cylinders when it fails...

    S&W Model 629 Stealth Hunter

    The testing goes on... Thought i'd log in and give an update. I've shot the gun 2x now and put 90 rounds through. 70 without and 20 with my new Burris Fastfire III. I was a little iffy on the red dot at first when looking through it because it seemed to be hard to aquire. However, once...

    S&W Model 629 Stealth Hunter

    Range Info Yes - I was using some new Mechanix gloves (non-velcro strap) that I really like for shooting. The palm is decently thick and dampens the shock a bit, but it also seems to keep the burnt powder dust off your hands. Yeah, I try to control my breathing and do my part with...

    S&W Model 629 Stealth Hunter

    Update & Range Report Appreciate the holster recommendation and the advice on the screws. I went to the store to pick up my new gun and when I got into my jeep to look at it, I have to admit, I was awestruck. What an awesome gun. Its so unique looking and well made. I hadn't even shot it...

    S&W Model 629 Stealth Hunter

    The big day is near... Just got word that my new Stealth Hunter has shipped and should be into my FFL by Friday. I also got word about my red dot and ammo. I bought the Burris FastFire 3 and Hornady 240gr Hollow Point XTP's. I'm going to need a reloading class so I can start the real fun...

    S&W Model 629 Stealth Hunter

    I just ordered my 1st revolver - the Stealth Hunter. I've not seen a lot of chatter in the form of reviews on YouTube and in depth performance reviews of this gun. What i'd like to know is for those who own one: What's your overall impression? What do you typically use for your ammo at the...

    Got a holster made for my 629 Stealth Hunter

    Weight, Balance etc.. Mine was just purchased online so im in waiting for it to show up at my FFL dealer. I'm very anxious to get this one. I'll post pics and some comprehensive reviews on YouTube. I think I will have to get a custom holster though - not many options. A blade tech kydex leg...

    Got a holster made for my 629 Stealth Hunter

    Bad *** Revolver I just bought one but was putting a Burris Fast Fire on it. What's your experience with the stealth so far? Accuracy? Red Dot success? Like it /hate it? Very few good reviews on this. Not many holster options for such an awesome piece of artillery which is strange.. HL
