Bad to the Bone. This is a substantial revolver, big and heavy, which make for a very manageable kick.
Shot 24 rounds first time out, tweeked the adjustable rear site a bit and was getting consistent shots in the 4" circle from 40'. Thought about getting the 8" barrel, but glad I got the 6.5", its more than enough. Typical light S&W trigger on single action. As always. Buds was a pleasure to do business with.

Purchased this bad boy from Buds (best way to go), and love it very much through about 150 or so rounds. Gun has a hell of a thump to it, but knowing that whatever is on the other end will surely turn into either burnt toast or space dust upon impact is comforting. Very nice to be able to pull such a large caliber gun out of the box and have it be so accurate. Love the rubber gripping on mine. Love the array of special/magnum ammo for this gun. Trigger is just... the best in single action, hands down. Single and double action led me to choose the 629 classic over a Ruger. Love to show it off to those interested, it\'s hard to NOT grin at a .44 mag with a 6.5\" barrel. Will take me a little time to get it down in terms of cutting dead center like Dirty Harry, but I will have tons of fun in the process, and THAT is what it is all about. Get one. It will give you smiles the whole time you own it, even when it\'s sitting in the other room not being used.

There have been a few changes since I purchased my last model 29.This edition is a beautiful piece - stainless steel is just something special.It is not stipulated however,that the N frame revolvers converted to a round butt in 1995.So the grips the Talo edition must be conversion grips from round butt to square.Faked me out right there.Conversion rosewood grips on the way for me! Despite the petty state issues that I had to contend with (California),Bud's offered a tremendous value and a smooth sale. Thanks again to everyone at Bud's.

This is a typical Smith and Wesson. That is to say well built, smooth double action and very lite single action trigger. The recoil is manageable due to its size and weight. It is a 44 Magnum so it does kick some with full Magnum loads, but nothing you cant handle. Smith and Wesson makes some of the best revolvers on the planet, and this one is no exception.

Great gun. Only issue was processing was done in 2 days (ready Monday) but they didn't ship the firearm until Friday so with 2-day shipping the firearm didn't reach FFL carrier until the following Tuesday. A minor speed bump for a very nice firearm in perfect condition. As for the gun, it locks up tight, the single action pull feels flawless and combined with the length and weight of the revolver it makes for an extremely accurate weapon.

Awesome gun! Buds had it in stock and I ordered. 2 Days to process and was shipped UPS and was delivered to my FFL within 24 hours. Very secure way to buy at a great price if you catch what you want in stock. This firearm is a beast. Some may say Smith quality has slipped but this is a factory fresh gun that's built like a tank with attention to every detail. Great investment piece that will outlast us all with normal use and minimal maintainance.

I went to range this last weekto try out my .44 mag. It was a great experience in shooting. Smith & Wesson makes a very niceproduct. I would recommend this gun as well as many other Smith & Wesson guns. Buds was very professional with the orde and delivery of my gun. I would recommend Budsfor the purchase of any gun.

I have taken this gun to the range twice so far, and have fired about 150 rounds through it. In short: This gun is awesome.
The look and feel of the gun are very good, and it's bound to get attention wherever you take it. It dwarfs most other pistols, and looks great doing it.
The fit and finish of this gun is excellent and the cylinder lockup is very tight, especially when the hammer is cocked. The sights are solid, and the gun's weight and long sight radius make it inherently stable and easy to aim.
My favorite part: The trigger. While the double-action trigger pull is predictably heavy, it is at least smooth and consistent. The single-action is what truly shines, though. I haven't measured it, but the pull can't be more than 2.5 pounds, and there is no perceptible pre-travel. This is the main reason I chose a Smith & Wesson revolver, as every other one I've handled has the same superb trigger.
In conclusion, I love this gun. I am extremely satisfied with it, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a big .44 to have some fun with.
