Title: S&W 629 Performance Center Snubbie - Range Evaluation

I recently took on a mission to create The Ultimate Defense Revolver capable of solving any personal defense encounter in North America.

A great foundation for me to build upon was the S&W 629 Snubbie  44 Magnum from the performance center. In evaluating this revolver I felt the only thing that really needed improving was the rear sight.

With this being an Urban and Woods carry revolver capable of shutting down any encounter with 2Legged or 4legged predators something more robust than the thin rear blade of the Smith and Wesson was needed.

After a long search I came across DLSports.com and after exchanging a few emails I had what I believe to be a resolution to my problem.

Love the vid. The gun just looks badass. I do have a suggestion for you concerning the second shot going left. I don't profess to be a double action shooter but I do have a few buds that shoots that game with offhand fast shooting and running while shooting. Their biggest issue that they see with most shooters during double action shooting is the trigger finger. They say you need to practice shooting the gun and not allowing the trigger finger to leave the trigger as you'll never put it back in the same place twice which causes pulled shots. Again, I'm no double action shooter despite having a bunch of them but it seemed to make sense to me. Might review your vid and watch your trigger finger. Looking forward to you doing this one again. I might have to try this next trip to the ranch or range. Looks like it could be a lot of fun. But I do have a question for you. Tell me about the timer and how it works and where did you get it?

Mr. Revolver guy, how is the quality of the internals on that PC?
    Are you a revolversmith?
   I'm a S&W wheel gun hoarder. I'm more into the older ones with the pin on the hammer but definitely a nice gun you have there.
   When u get a smith do you go thru it and tune up the action a little?
   PM me if you are a gunsmith with a lot of smith experience if you would
    Thanks
