[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 2505082, member: 13337"] I was given a 6" 629 no dash,,, But I rarely ever shoot it. When the father of my best friend passed away,,, I helped her clean, catalog, price, and sell her father's collection. This was a three day process just to find, clean, and catalog them. When it was all done she gave me the 629,,, She said it was his favorite handgun. About the only thing I do with it,,, Is haul it out when introducing new shooters to revolvers,,, And no, I don't hand it to an 85 pound woman and video the results. It is my least shot handgun of the 40 I own. The reason is that I have no practical use for it,,, And I have tried to come up with a viable use for the monster,,, I don't hunt anymore and even if I did I would use my 6" S&W Model 686. I have a friend who loads for his .44 mag,,, He made me some light target loads to try through it,,, They did lessen the recoil but I might as well just shoot .44 specials. The gun is like the 426 Hemi I used to own,,, It made quite a bit of noise and impressed my friends,,, But for regular day to day transportation it wasn't practical at all. My friend passed away two years ago,,, So I keep the big boomer as a memento of her,,, But other than drag it out for special occasion shooting,,, It just sits in it's case as part of a four-gun set that I collected. Meet "The Harem".

It's a magnificent handgun and I love owning it,,, It's just that I have no practical use for mine. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
