A lightly modified 629PP. Trigger job, velvet hone and pinstripe..They do great work. I did this many years ago, but recall that I was concerned about the velvet hone glass beads removing the model#/caliber laser etching on the barrel and frame. They took great care to go over those areas lighter so that the etching is intact.
Since I am sure there are a few regular gun rag readers on this board, I really took this idea from a nice article that Layne Simpson did for Shooting times around the 1996 time frame. In this article (which was really an infomercial for MagnaPort), he showcased two S&W revolvers customized by MP. The first was a 6" 629 and the second was a companion 6" 617. Both guns had similar treatments to mine with the addition to the magnaports. I cannot recall if the 22LR 617 had them as well? If I ever find that magazine (i know I saved it), i will scan and share here.
