    Another one :rolleyes:

    Found a used Smith and Wesson Model 29 at LGS
    being a Dirty Harry fan I just could not pass it up

    This is the before I got to cleaning it up, need to
    find some wood grips to get it correct, eventually
    need to have it re-blued as there are some marks under
    the Hogue grips

    Insides were filthy needed a good cleaning
    and polished the trigger, hammer and other bits
    to a nice smooth finish, trigger pull is smooth.

    All I need is a good leather shoulder holster and
    this will be a fun carry on the bike..

    Go ahead, make my day.

    44 Mag, you can shoot special to get a lighter load and less recoil
    Cleaned it last night, lots of crap had stained the trigger, hammer and recoil block

    Polished it with some red and dremel to clean it up, oiled the heck out of it
    to get it going.

    Will take apart tonight, clean again and hit the hammer and trigger and block
    with the dremel on low and some white polish that will make it smooth silky and
    quick..

    Mine I allways loaded my own ammo. 24o gr.JHP for Hunting, 240 gr.Lead wad cutters for fun. 'Wife loved to shoot it also. She wouldn't shoot her "wimpy" 22 after the first time she handled the 44. She didn't realize she was just shooting a warm 44 special load. Hey,why spoil it for her.
