I was hoping this was a April's fools joke. Very nice find and beautiful, just beautiful. You have been on a roll. I went to the Las Vegas gun show this weekend and all I saw was junk. One of these days I will find the 4 inch.

Both the Costa Mesa and Santa Barbara Show are the deal!! I'm a new collector but learning very fast. The thing we can't learn quickly is being out there without help and buying. I have to be very careful. For the most part, I am lucky and when in doubt I limit risk and try to buy from known sources. If not buy smart and take a risk within limitations.
What we don't have in Cali is great gun shops like the rest of you in the US. We can't take a drive and hit the spot and find a deal or go to a Military specialist. At least not as often but we do have good guns around. Some of my best finds and best buys have been gun shows local.

As usual, great guns ALL!! Did they all come with the presentation cases? I did not even realize that there was a 5" pre-29.
PS - For curiosity sake, what are the guns in the background in?

Actually the 5 has a presentation case but it is a wood version. The gun is a later model 29-2 
Guns in background are in three position cheap racks from NRA store... They are great for short term storage...

Forgive my semi-tipsy state of mind: so you did buy all three? (4", 5", and 6 or 6-1/2")?
