Mountain Gun

[stinx]

I have been lusting after a 4 inch model 25 in 45 Colt for the longest time. I really wanted an older gun however I had zero luck finding one locally. Online when I found them the price was steep. Yesterday I walked into my local shop and lo and behold they had a 4 inch mountain gun in 45 Colt. The gun appears to have not been fired. Needless to say after some haggling I walked out of the store with my Mountain gun. According to the fired case and paperwork in the box this gun was made in 2005. I really wish it didn't have the lock but beggars cant be choosy.

Nice. I have a few Mountain Guns and Mountain Revolvers. I love them.

Very nice! I have a real soft spot for the Mountain Guns.
My five foot tall tough as nails Grandmother carried a stainless model in. 45 Colt for almost 20 years horseback riding and kicking around the ranch and mountains. Lots of very fond memories...

Great job! That is a beautiful pistol.

I have always wanted something like that as well, it just feels great in your hand.

Many people believe the Mountain Gun straddles shootability and carryability. I have one in .44 Magnum that is a tack driver with Federal Cast Core.

You might want to consider disabling the lock. I owned a 629 and the recoil caused the flag to be halfway activated and prevent the gun from working. It took the range gunsmith 15 minutes to get it back to normal. A pretty bad scenario if this gun was for self defense. I ended up selling it. Only pre-lock S&W revolvers for me now.

Had a stainless Mountain Gun in .45 Colt years ago. It's one of those I regret getting rid of.

I had to pass on a couple of nice Mountain Guns because I didn't have money at the time.

Oh my, that is lovely. I have a stainless steel one myself, and it is great fun to shoot, but I do think that the blued ones are much nicer looking.

Oh well. In my case, I had tremendous luck finding even a stainless steel Mountain Gun. The very first and last time I've ever seen one for sale. (Now I just need more clean cases, bullets, powder and primers... )

I just took my .45 Colt Mtn Gun out for a quick session on Saturday. I'm not much of a revolver shooter but this thing is really accurate for me.
