I agree, they were, & are fine pieces. Even my younger son appreciates their craftmanship & quality. Last time I showed him my latest find he said " It's hard to believe you can buy an all metal gun in that good of condition for that price these days."
That said, back in the day, these weren't cheap pistols. A 4506 back in 1989 had a MSRP of $701, which is $1434 in today's dollars. A 6" 629 would "only" be $509 then. Big money for a hard working man with a family.
Buy them while they're still resonable.
