Default My first 29

Picked this up today
The stocks I had in mind for it well I'm a boob

It's a late 60's one that was taken pretty good care of
I threw on some grips I had laying around.Not the ones I wanted to.
I just couldn't get the K's on quite right :cuss: :bang: Just a bit miffed at myself
I had these in mind for it......oh well I can buy another K frame gun to fit them
A true addict in action :jester:

Great find on the model 29. I prefer the original grips to the Eagles. I think their grain is very, very nice.

Good looking gun. There's a lot of good shooting in that one.

I'm mashing the virtual "like" button, but you'll just have to remember that because the "like" counter is currently recuperating from major surgery.
