Not as pretty. The 629-1 is going at a lot more reasonable price right now, so buy another. Stainless will hold up well in hot, humid weather conditions with rain when carrying. Fine guns.

Older guys like the P&R guns because that's how well they used to be made. The -1 isn't giving anything but that up. If most people prefer the no dash and dash fours, that leaves more at better prices for the rest of us.
