What's your opinion? I won't be buying it as a collectors piece, just to shoot and enjoy. Another question comes to mind, which I voiced in the other thread, is what makes the current 629 so good and other Smiths not so good. All you guys know more than I do. If your opinion is a used 629, which would it be? -1,-2,-3, etc. Thanks. Should be interesting to read some comments.
