S&W 329 PD Feedback wanted

[nheric]

I have been eyeballing a 329 PD at a local gun store for awhile and with tax money coming in i was thinking of picking it up . I was wondering if anyone on here owns one or has had first hand experience with one that could give me there thoughts on the gun.
I know the revolver light weight and It must kick like a mule with heavier loads but I am not recoil shy and I enjoy shooting cannons.

Thanks Eric

How much are they asking for, out of curiosity?

it was sold and priced a little under a grand he said he can order me one for the same price anytime

Great pistol, but it will kick like a mule. I was more impressed with the 329PD than I was a 500 S&W revolver.
With full house 44 mags after a bout one cylinder it's all the fun you can stand.
Made a 34 - 35 oz Mountain Magnum lookl tame by recoil comparison.
Stick with 44 special rounds or real mild handloads.
This pistol was made to 1) be carried a bunch and shot little or 2) as a vehicle for normal 44 special loads (or mild handloads).
Good luck and let us know if you order one.
