i had got a 629-1 lew horton in 3" but i resold it few years ago. I paid my 29-2 515 euros = 646 usd.
 
thank you in France it s diffuclut to find a 4 inch but the french shooter's prefere a 6 inch for the accuracy.

Is .44 Magnum ammunition hard to find in France?
What's available?

Can you people now own "military" calibers, like 9mm Parabellum/NATO?

Thanks,

I don't blame you for being happy with that 29. 4 incher I always wanted one but not yet. Very nice.
 
You should be happy. That is a beauty. I have a 4 inch blue gun from about the same time. However, mine is very much used! I used to shoot IPSC matches in 1970's using my own cast 240 grain Keith bullets. Did real well....beat a lot of 1911's. Back in those days, the 1911's had a lot of jams and we had heavy plates to knock over and the old 29 never let me down. Won some matches even. Hope you enjoy your as much as I have mine.

yes we can have a 9 mm parabellum or a 45 acp or a 223 i have 02 9 mm ( glock and 1911 70 's) 01 gold cup 45 acp and a M4 SDI in 223 rem.

but we ave not a CCW just a shooting licence to go to the shooting range. I'm a law enforcemnt officer and i only wear my gun in duty.

For the 44 cartridges many shooters reloaded. for the calibers like 9 mm/ 45 acp/ 223rem/ 40 s&w /38-357 it s more easy to find.

the french gun law is very very complicated and very very strange. For the american people it's incredible a gun law like this.
Thanks,

Good for you. You've instantly become the envy of shooters everywhere.
