Any experience with the new 2.5" ported 44 Mag Backpacker
« on: April 14, 2007, 07:42:46 AM »
I saw a new S&W 629 44mag 2.5" ported barrel backpacker model the other day.  It's got a hi-viz front sight, 6 shots, with bear tracks etched on the cylinder.  Anyone have one of these, or heard much about them?  Any data out there on velocity, recoil, etc.? 

I live in AK and have been evaluating various carry options for revolvers (44 mag being the smallest I'd consider).  I'm new to this forum, but have read alot and learned a bunch from it.

Thanks!
