I've wanted a 4" .44Mag since I traded my last one off fifteen years ago. I recently found a used Mountain Gun in good condition at a price I could abide with and it followed me home.
Thanks to Tamara I've found the holster I want and ordered it from PWL. Now for general field carry, hunting and IDPA use it's time to accessorize
The rear sight blade is slightly loose and bent (wonder if that happened when the last owner fired his first 240gr full powered load? N frames don't bounce.) I take it that S&W has changed the style sight they use as this one is inletted down into the frame and the tang is round where the sight on my older 6" 629 is bolted to the top with a square tang. The mountain gun also has three screw holes in the rear sight mortise, is this stock? Any suggestions for a replacement sight? Night sights?
I've always used Safariland Comp I speedloaders, has anything better come out and I've missed it? I've been dallying with semiauto's way too much the past several years.
I'm open to other suggestions, BTW the Artemis Revolver is a beauty, but I'll forgo any engraving for now.
