Before sending your model 29 back to S & W, I personally see no harm in removing the stocks and thoroughly flushing the internals with aerosol brake cleaner via the frame opening for the hammer, lightly re-lubricating the same and seeing if the problem persists. If it solves the problem you have saved yourself (and the gun) a trip and the expense, and if it doesn't the factory will have a nice clean gun to work on. Hope everything works out for you.
