I love the break top h&r revolvers, that is literally only the 2nd 4" one I've seen. I almost bought the other one, but it was about 100 more than I wanted to spend. While I was thinking some older gentleman at the gun show snapped it up. HE knew what he was looking at, I did not or I wouldn't...

Make that an 8 shot 44 mag and I'd bite. But as a joke I'd put a small set of wagon wheels under the barrel and call it a mobile artillery piece. The 44 mag or special is far from dead, and that makes me happy since it's my favorite. My first revolver was a 44 mag and I won't be without one...

My biggest rifle caliber wise is my 45-70 handi rifle, which can handle a LOT more than trapdoor loads if the shooter behind it is up for it. Honorable mention to my 35 Whelen I built for bear and elk hunting. Largest handgun is my 458 socom 8" upper. And since I also have an sbr lower, it can...

You'll need to if you want to shoot it consistently. Luckily most of your big boomers benefit from using the same powder and primers, so cases and projectiles will be the biggest hunt. I admit, I envy the collection you've got going, it's been a while since I've been able to buy something...

Had a really bad couple of weeks at a security job in college that I carried my 6" mod 29 in a shoulder holster. Got shot at and didn't want to advertise I was packing, so I wore it under my jacket. Luckily it was at night, so the jacket wasn't out of place, but that was the only way to hide it...

You will like it for sure, until you buy ammo. It ain't affordable or very available. But it puts big holes in stuff. And makes even bigger grins.

I've had two, both 44 and neither were compatible with the new barrels both ran me roughlya thousand, and both were trades, years apart. I'd love a 429de barrel, but my one and only 50ae was a automag that blew up on me. I'd love a desert eagle to swap between the 50 and 429de, but they are...

I didn't think I would like that, but with the long barrel it's beautiful!

Had a pair of the tec 22 pistols at one time, but my girlfriend at the time liked the mod.29 a lot more. I ended up selling them for reloading components. That was about the only way to fund my and her shooting habits at the time... it was worth it, they were toys anyway, but an uzi, always...

Go out and shoot them both at once. A 44 in each hand is a superlative experience...

Dang it, I need a 29 again!

Both are fun, but neither are as much enjoyment as a 29...

Hi points have their place... its in nightmares, but it's a place. I can't believe we even came up with hi points in a s&w 29 thread!

That thing reminds me of those construction nail drivers. Bout asugly and user-friendly, which is polar opposite to the beauty that mark mark is about to have in his hands. I bet he forgets all about that broken colt he's also dealing with...

How much does a loaded m14 mag weigh vs an AK mag? There's the real difference. I've used fal and cetme rifles for my main shtf weapon, and ak's as well. But I'd rather have more ammo for the same weight, so I no longer rely on a 308, and a lightweight 5.56 rifle is my go to. I like them all...
