629-4 backpacker has been my #1 grail gun for a few years. There was believed to be 5000 made in April of 1994. They have either a BR or BS prefix. The early ones came with Hogue medallion grips and the old style pinned ejector. I have laid eyes on many for sale on gun broker, almost bid on a few but ultimately they were selling for more than I wanted to pay. Now I waited to long and they have well exceeded a grand. All I expected to pay was $750-800 if I ever saw one at a gun show or LGS but one never came around.
I really don’t expect to ever get one. The more that sell the more that are off the market for many years. Even if one was put in front of me right now for $1200 I’d probably pass, I have a few guns that will do the same thing.
