MODEL 29-6 CLASSIC
Finally shot newly acquired MODEL 29-6 CLASSIC with .44spl last weekend. SMOOTH as OILED GLASS. Both 18 yo son and I were keyholing target at 15 yards. Will take it big range on the ranch for Magnum rounds later. Gun is clean and locks up well. Pictures below.

Those were made at a time when manufacturing technology paired well with some old school gunmaking to produce some very good and typically accurate S&W revolvers. The 5" examples are fairly scarce.

SHOT 44MAG ROUNDS in 29-6 CLASSIC 5"
As promised reporting back on shooting 44 MAG rounds with 29-6 CLASSIC . Range was 20 yards, one BULLSEYE , a few 9s, a couple of 8s and a couple of flyers in the 7 ring. Been awhile since I shot magnum rounds .
I had gunsmith check trigger pull on all my Model 29s. They all came in a touch under 4#. Does anyone know what the factory specified trigger pull was from 1960-1980?
