Any info on it? I think it was a -6. Ser#awf6xxx. So much for sleeping in the next ten days! No lock and the firing pin is on the hammer.

You should have a lot of fun shooting that.
My 3 inch .44 mag is an Astra and it's a great shooter but I'd like to replace it with a Smith. My 629 is a 6 1/2"People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome.

-5's should have been the last one without a lock. Are you sure its not a -4 or older. Either way, you are going to have a big blast with that on. I know a .44mag in 4" is a real blast, like volley ball sized with a full charge of H110.www.culinagrips.com

The 629-4 is the last one with the hammer mounted firing pin if I'm not mistaken. I have a 3" 629-4 and its one of my favorite handguns for all around use."You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

I can't add any info... I just want to say congrats! And I look forward to pics and a range report when available.
I will be doing the paperwork on a Model 29-2 in 8-3/8" in a few days (had to wait for the gun to clear the 30-day check on consignment guns) and I am excited. I already have some .44 mag ammo waiting for it
That means you will have yours before I get to pick mine up.
Congrats again and enjoy it.One Way to Post Pics ********** How to Submit an iTrader Rating That Counts ********** Brass for Sale

You could always shoot .44 special in that revolver.
44 SPL LEAD-FREE BUFFALO-BARNES Maximum firepower bullets. Best ammunition for pistols and handguns for sale. Buffalo Bore. Strictly big bore. Strictly Business.
