What big bores, 44 and bigger, and 4" barrel or less do you pack either conceal carry or in the woods or wherever.

Here are some of mine:

625 45 Colt 4" and 629 44 Mag 3"

Redhawk 45 Colt 4"

And lastly a Kimber 45ACP 4"

Tell me about the grips on your Mountain gun. I've got a 41 mag version, but the factory rubbers are just not my cup of tea.

Thanks Dave, As a reward for the additional info on the grips, here's a photo relevant to your thread. Colt Officers ACP in Ultrabright stainless. It's an older photo. the grips have been changed for wood as the rubbers were again, not my cup of tea.

I had one very clost to that model too. I didn't like the little scratches showing up on it all the time. I wish I had it back! Kimber came out wiht the ultra carry with all the bells and whistles and I liked the looks so much that I took my gun and put all the nice little do dads on in and added some cocobolo grips to it. It was stunning to look at.

That is one very nice Bisley Vaquero. If I may ask, who did the work on it?

Thanks

I'll have to agree with Otony, that 500spl is extraordinary. There's just something about octagonal barrels.

This S&W 624 .44 Special spent many days on my hip when at my parents' log cabin and property in the woods of Wisconsin.

This Ruger Blackhawk .44 Special will be my backup on my hip one week from today while wild boar hunting. It'll be loaded up with Keith 250 grain bullets backed by 17.0 grains of 2400.

I don't have a picture of my 4" Redhawk. This must be corrected.

Some sweet packin pistolas. Only thing I've got is a .454 Alaskan. Nothing to compare to some of these beauties. Keep 'em comin!
