    629 problem

    Hello, I'd like to put this out for the forum to weigh in. My 629 made in the 80's has a problem with the hammer falling in single action mode without the trigger being depressed. I can make the hammer fall when cocked by pressing on the trigger from its side. Any thoughts on possible cause...

    Model 66-2 not detonating primers

    I just returned from the range with my 66-2 that I recently acquired and I had trouble with misfires with some of the rounds in each cylinder of ammo I put through whether in single or double action mode. Several rounds required cycling back through before they went off. I also had the trigger...

    66-2 4" What is fair Price

    I just picked up a 66-2, 2.5 inch from 1986 that looked unfired for 500.00 (no box) as a second carry gun and I love it. The first time I shot it I had clover leaf groups off a rest at 20' and off-hand double action had 18 rounds with nothing outside the 8 ring. Then just for s**ts and giggles...

    32 grains! Make sure you check your book that seems like more powder than I've ever seen in published load data.

    29-2 ship date

    Hello. I just got a 29-2 serial # N473XXX. Could anyone please give me a ship date on this gun? I have wanted one of these for over 30 years. I can't believe I actually have it. Thank you very much for any info.

    I need a good scale, recommendations please.

    Hello everyone, first post here and thought I'd chime in on my scale. I'm currently using an RCBS Rangemaster 750 digital after using for many years the old stand-by RCBS 505. I prefer the digital because its faster for me and easier to read. I should mention my first one went bad in 90...
