Unless you are referring to a M1 Grande, the term "clip" is usually an IMPROPER reference to a magazine.

Some good advice. I am appreciative to know if anyone I am making contact with has a gun and where it is. I do not care if you have a ccw unless you have the gun within reach. When you are alone on a lonely stretch of highway you err on the side of going home. So what does it hurt by...

I bought my Mountain Gun while in route to Yousemite National Park for some hiking and rock climbing. We were up close and personal with 5 bears during the trip! All were well behaved and we gave them plenty of room. However, I was quite happy to have my new Mountain Gun strapped to my side...

You might want to look for some silver bullets or a wooden stake handy:)

I bought a 629 Mountain Gun from Cabela's yesterday for $585 during their Hometown Hero sale. Original tag was $650. An extremely clean gun with a trigger job and some other custom work to make it smooth as silk. The brand new 629 at Cabelas is $900. I cant wait to take mine out.

Neumann-- Sounds like the clerk I spoke with did not have his facts straight. I have found some other threads and it appears that several have used 300ish g loads occasionally in the MG w/ damage. Thanks.

I just took advantage of Cabela's Hometown Hero promotion and picked up a very gently used 629 Mountain Gun for $585 w/a really nice trigger job, and some other custom work. When it came to ammo the clerk told me S&W did not recommend anything over 240g. I was hoping to get the scoop from...

Hornday FTX Ammo Based upon the great article posted I rethought some of my ammo selections while I picked up my new mountain gun today. I picked up a box of 240g Hornday XTP and a box of 225g FTX. I wanted a load for hog and black bear defense round. The FTX looked like a good deep...

I was not sure where to post this so I guess this is as good a place as any. I just learned that Cabelas is having thier Hometown Hero deal starting today. Up to 25% off and employee prices. This does include guns and ammo....but am told that they are only 10%. This offer is for military...

I found a deal on a mountain gun and will be buying it tomorrow. I am looking for some factory ammo that would be good in it for black bear defense while hiking. I am not hunting with it and do not want to destroy it with some hot and heavy 300g+ rounds. What brand and grains would your...

Thank you all for your comments. Just looking for a good 629 Mountain Gun for field carry gun in good shape. Not interested in collector value or financial "investment". Will keep looking for a deal.

I have decided to buy a 629 Mountain Gun and am curious what would be a good price. I found a gently used Cabella's Outfitter series for $700. The action is smooth as silk but it has the infamous lock. I know they will do a 10% off for military over 4th of July which will pretty much pay the...
