    Default Hand Cannons Please. What's your Super Mas Macho pistol?

    My first handgun, bought after a week of Dirty Harry movies, is a S&W 44 Magnum Moutain Gun (38 oz of Fire Breathing Stainless Steel).

    Very nice!

    Have you shot it or tried to CCW it?

    I am in the market for a "big" revolver.

    Only requirement is it must have at least 6rds or 357 or 44. Currently leaning toward a Taurus 617 (7rds of 357)

    Used to have a Smith 29 in 2-1/2"
    But the PM45 does it for me now

    Have you shot it? Are you kidding LOL!
    1000+ rounds (but not with the wood grips)

    CCW? Yup. In an Eagle XL Fanny Pack for about 3 years.
    (Had to stuff it in up side down - LOL!)

    S&W makes the best revolvers in the world - IMHO.
    Recommend - S&W Performance Center 627 (8 shot 357)
    They have the new night guard series as well - take your pick!

    That is one elegant hand cannon! How do you prevent the cylinder drag line? Yours looks perfect!
    It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.

    I don't know what that is?
    Had to look it up.


    That pic isn't my gun - but looks almost just like it.
    The cylinder is still perfect though.
    Mine is a M629-2 Mountain Revolver.
    It's all ALL stainless including the hammer and trigger.
    Is glass bead blasted for a satin finish that resists scratches.
    Plus I had a professional action job and an over travel adjustment screw
    put in the trigger. The action is like pure glass.
    5 years in storage and I spun the cylinder and it just sang!
    I think the all stainless construction with glassy action job and glass bead blasted finish keeps it looking pristine.

    Update: Ops, mine does have a drag line...

    even as the years pass by? LOL! Oh well, I love her anyway.

    I saw a movie the othernite, "Faster" with Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock, he had a Ruger Redhawk Alaskan in 454 Casull with 2.5 in barrel. We froze the DVD on a spot where you could read the etching on the gun so we know what it was. You know how Hollywood over does everything, but it sure looked like a hell of a gun. Looked like a hell of a hand cannon to me. It's 6 shooter too. My biggest gun is my 6 inch barrel S$W 629 .44 mag.

    Love my Ruger hand cannons.



    But if I want to just shoot something kind of bad-ass, then out comes Tommy!

    Default Hand cannons

    Here's my Ruger Bisley in .44 Magnum. It's actually pretty pleasant to shoot

    The business end:
