No worries mate. We all enjoyed it and knew exactly what you meant.

Why do you prefer the shorter barrel? THX.

I am looking at buying one of two model 29-2s. The 6" barrel is a clean 98% gun. The 6 1/2" is still a 98%er but not quite as nice with more barrel tip bluing wear and a little cylinder rash on one chamber from a holster. Which would you prefer?

OK-as a newbie I gotta ask what are the three T's? Thanks

I pretty much have the coin for one-and I like the N frame. So for general all around shooting which do you prefer 357 or 44mag? I go to the range and also like to go out to the desert and plink-blow up stuff. What's your opinion as to the overall best caliber/gun? (I prefer the 6 or 6 1/2 inch...

What about this one. I have never shot a Mod 29 recessed and non recessed back to back. A buddy of mine that is fairly experienced swears the non recessed kicks harder. Any of you agree or disagree on that one?

OK-Lets toss in one more variable. I have always liked the six inch barrel in the 357. I know there are a lot of longer barrel fans in the 44 mag club-around eight inches. Which do you prefer-sixish or eightish?

I would really appreciate that pdf. Please email to the address that pops up when you click on my screen name. Thanks, Mark

I am thinking about getting a model 29 and generally I, being old school, prefer a pinned and recessed -2. I have heard that for a shooter the later threaded barrel is better/stronger. Not to get a biased opinion considering the subforum I am on but which dash model do you consider best?

Dave, I have a H.P. 28-2 mfg in 1978. The N frame target grips I have are mfg a few years too late for me because they have the speed loader cutout. They are like yours-near perfect Goncalo alves. I have been looking for a set like yours for a while-would you consider trading or selling yours...

Since carry was not a consideration I went with the 28-2 with a six inch barrel-I like the feel more too.
