Finally have a S&W in .44 mag

Congratulations and welcome to the .44 world. I've got the same one and a 6.5" also. Put some good .44 special ammo in her and you might change your mind about the .357 as your favorite. I carry mine in the cooler weather in a Simply Rugged pancake with Gold Dot 200 jhp .44 special ammo. Great carry and still very accurate for a snubby.
 
I sold my first model 29, 8 3/8" to my neighbor. Tried to buy it back after making that mistake. Bought another one about a year ago $700. Went to a farm auction Saturday and Voila' a 629. Couldnt help myself. $600.

This 629 has ben shot about 20 times. It is so tight there is absolutely no play in lockup. Crane is the same way. Maybe I'll just store it away.
 
Hey -

Beautiful find - congrats! Who makes those grips and what are they called?

I am no expert but I think they are called combat grips and they came with the gun. I see alot of the Lew Horton guns with them on.

Nice Batman GMT in your profile pic Sir! Rolex Watches are my other Vice.I have a 1970 "Pepsi" GMT and a 1972 Two Tone "Rootbeer" GMT.I'm more into the Vintage Watches but the Batman GMT is a stunner.
 
Did you say Rolex??

My first weakness - I'm a collector and have oh, a couple dozen. Wear a different one every day!
