Equipped with red insert serrated ramp front sights and an adjustable micrometer-click rear sight, the 629-6 Bear Hunter offers quick target acquisition and precision in various shooting conditions. Its double/single-action mechanism provides flexibility, whether for fast follow-up shots or controlled, accurate shooting. The elegant textured wood grips enhance comfort and recoil control, ensuring a secure hold during intense shooting sessions. One of the most striking features of this revolver is the detailed engraving: a laser-engraved Grizzly Bear head on the right side of the frame and bear paws etched around the cylinder. Additionally, the revolver is marked “46 of 100” on the ejector shroud, signifying its limited-edition status with only 100 units ever produced, making it a rare collector’s item. This combination of powerful performance, aesthetic appeal, and limited availability makes the 629-6 Bear Hunter an ideal piece for both serious hunters and collectors alike.
Inspired by the popular Smith & Wesson 500ES Bear Survival Kit, the 629-6 Bear Hunter addresses the challenges of using a .500 S&W Magnum in a short-barreled revolver by opting for the more manageable .44 Magnum—offering potent power without sacrificing compactness. As part of a limited run, each kit includes an engraved knife featuring the Bear Face logo and matching sequential numbering, mirroring the revolver’s serial number. The revolver, knife, and a medical kit are housed in a custom-etched Nanuk 910 case, designed to be waterproof and specifically cut to fit the Bear Hunter revolver and accessories, creating a complete survival package. This revolver is not only a functional powerhouse but also a beautifully crafted piece, making it an exceptional addition to any collection or arsenal. Whether for personal protection, sport shooting, or handgun hunting, the Model 629-6 Bear Hunter offers versatility, reliability, and long-lasting durability.
