help me buy a .44 special

Why even ask? Always pick the old one!

If you can't find an old one here is the new classic 21-4 from CDNN for 499.99. The lock doesn't bother me and it is a good shooter with light weight and good handling.I like mine fine.

Just what is the deal with the cylinders on the 624's? I just bought a 6.5" 624 at the gunshow, and someone asked me if the box had the big red "C" stamped on it (it does). He said there was a recall, and the stamped guns have been fixed. Is this the "large throat" problem, or something else?

Been told that it was a problem with the quality of the steel.

I just measured my throats. They're like .433" (my others are like one or two thousandths over bullet size). I've only shot the gun a few times, and it seemed to do OK. Is it known to cause inaccuracy problems? Like really bad, or just not quite what it could be?

Outstanding sir!

Let me add to your list of pleasures fine pipe tobacco and a shave with a sharp straight edge blade.
