Beautiful gun. I had that exact model save for the fact that I went for a ported barrel because ... its 44 mag! Hogue grips make a nice addition to that piece and the trigger pull, action, and smooth hammer never let you down. She's accurate even with that big load at 30 meters. Really nice. I miss my old S&W.

Thanks for posting! A few years back, I got 150 rounds of trigger time with a 629-4 and liked it, but the rubber grip put a blister on my thumb knuckle. The owner wanted to trade me for an AR I had. I figured if he was able to afford that nice revolver, he can go get an AR on his own, so something was wrong. To this day, I have been wanting a revolver just like it, but with wood grips, maybe even Miculek grips.

I bought one of these exact guns for a ridiculous price. It had the trigger lock damaged? So it was cheaper to do a lock delete. So then it locked up in double action. It took gentle reshaping of the sear. It had a 12 pound trigger pull so a rebound spring change dropped it to 9lbs. So aftermarket trigger. Now 4lb trigger pull.Gun was so uncomfortable to use. So combat grips. Finally getting somewhere. So next I had to shim yoke then shim the cylinder. Now I have one really nice 629 for less than 1000 bucks. I think it's worth ever cent I spent on it.

Hi! Love it!!!! That’s a fine lookin sidearm right there! Dang. I love S&W’s and would rather have a 629 but I just got another “bear gun” and felt I needed the beefiness of a Ruger Redhawk again for the gigantoid Buffalo Bore’s I want to carry. Just got in fiber optics for it. The stock sights are a bit blocky for any decent accuracy, at least from me. Be a while for a video of it. Again, that’s one beautiful gun you picked up. Merry Christmas and hope to see more of you in the new year.

I kicked around the idea of buying a standard framed (non-Super) Redhawk instead of this Smith just for those +P+ BB rounds, but I do have a Super Blackhawk that can eat them, so i went this way instead. Besides.... I'll end up getting a (BFR in either) .475 Linebaugh/.480 Ruger or .500 Linebaugh in this next year. I just almost feel that this 629 is going to HAVE to have a set of fiber optics. Either those factory sights suck in bright sunlight such as what I was shooting in, or my eyes are to blame. Either way, glowing dots would be much better. Thanks, and Merry Christmas!

S&W can handle any load a Ruger can! They are not built stronger than a S&W at all! Rugers are thicker only because they are a cast made gun where a S&W are a forged made gun. In order to make a cast made gun as strong as a forged it has to be thicker! Ruger makes cast guns because it’s cheaper and people think they are stronger. In reality a forged gun is usually always stronger than a cast one. It’s simple metallurgy. Now years ago Ruger did make tougher built guns but they were only the SA guns for wildcat calibers. But this is not the case for their DA/SA guns. People always say Rugers are built like a tank but they only seem this way because the casting process is inferior to a forged gun.🇺🇸
