[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 3081359, member: 68542"] Thankfully I don’t live in bear country anymore. I bought the 329 when I lived in north Idaho and bow hunted, in case I ran into something large. The 329 malfunctions were the only issues I ever had with that revolver over several years and many, many rounds. I learned to loctite the hell out of the ejector rod, and never shoot those 255gr buffalo bores, and life was good. That thing ate a steady diet of hsm 305gr bear loads and worked just fine. My main point in posting those issues was to refute the hard line stance some folks have of “semi autos will always let you down and revolvers never will”. They’re all machines that can have issues. Know your machine, practice and test it, and the issues are minimal. But nothing is ever flawless. [/QUOTE]
