This is ironic. Just looked at a 4" nickel 29-2 today. SN#300088 in a beautiful box with all the tools. What is the current asking price for this vintage? I prefer your blue gun Doc, but this is the first 29-2 I have seen in about 5 years.

The current market on "N" prefix guns seems to be running $850 and up if as you describe. "S" prefix guns seem to command a $100-$200 premium over that. You didnt indicate the prefix on the number you gave, but if it is an "S" and the gun is in the earlier nickel configuration with the blue front sight the value could be more.
The prefix is "N". I am not qualified to judge the condition except to say it had no turn line and based on others I've seen would be 98%+. The wooden box was complete with tools and the box liner was perfect. Dealer did not know how much the gun had been fired, but it could pass for unfired and NIB. Sorry I don't have a picture. Dealer was asking $1050 which I thought was a little high, but considering how scarce they are around here, perhaps that price is correct. Thanks for the information. Sorry if I have hijacked DOC's thread.
I doubt Bill would consider this a hijack. At $1050 I would say that's a little high and think you could do better. However, guns in the shape you describe are becoming harder to find.
