Another 629 that looks strange?

Does this cylinder look right to you guys?

Thanks

With the beveled front edge, it looks like a cylinder from a Mountain Gun.....What does the rest of the revolver look like?

I don't know, I saw it online. Based on pictures it looks good.

Any -4s leave the factory with a beveled cylinder like that?

Not sure what the mountain gun's cylinders are supposed to look like but that cylinder doesn't look like my non-mountain gun 629.

The Classic Deluxes also had the beveled cylinder, my -4 looks the same.

My 5" 629-3 Classic DX has the raised portions of the front of the cylinder beveled and my 6.5" 629-4 Classic has both the raised and fluted portions beveled. Although I don't know if it shows well enough to see, here is a photo of those two guns along with a 6" 629-1 that has no beveling.

It seems to be a common feature of the -4s and perhaps to some extent the -3s.

I think mine looks pretty close to that one.
