The only thing I inherited from my Dad was a broken 19th century pocket watch and a "no-lock" S&W model 642 snub nosed .38. It doesn't leave the house. I can see maybe buying a replacement that I could actually carry. The "lock" definitely turned me off. No thanks. I'm glad to see Smith is changing direction. Bud's Guns is already selling "no-lock" model 642 revolvers. The pendulum is swinging our way, and fast!

I have a 629 Mountain Gun that I bought when they first came out. It came with a Hogue grip.

I purchased a S&W model 629 several years ago and have run a couple boxes of cartridges through it. I don't like firing those 1000gr bullets. They make my everything hurt.

.44 Specials make it more enjoyable with off the shelf ammo. The .44 mag is most fun when you load your own, though. Factory loads are loaded to ridiculous levels.
