Doc...Thanks for sharing the pic of this 29. I also never knew these existed. I have a special affection for snub nose fixed sight guns and yours is simply gorgeous. Here's my stainless version of the 44 Mag.
I also have a few others:
Machtech...What else can I say but STUNNING!
I've never even laid hands on one of those "Bloodwork" guns and you have 3. Can you spell ENVY!!!
Thanks for sharing.

Lot o' sweet N's here. Apparently the snubs do have a highly addictive quality.
Couple of my favorites:
M29-3 with Executioner stags:
And a 629-5, an excellent traveling companion:
Nice shootin' irons, all!

The Model 25-2 that S&W SHOULD have made . . . my favorite wheelgun, with a chopped-to-3 1/4" barrel and a radically narrowed, rounded and smoothed trigger . . .
It now sports a polished blue Tyler T-grip too . . .
Tom
PS: Sorry for the modern MIM cylinder latch, I'm a lefty and this latch is much faster for me in action handgun matches calling for fast reloads.

Hey Tom, S&W is making those now (snub 25s)...you just have to put up with the lock and the cast parts.

(I'm looking for a set of Retro Target's to arrive form Ahrends tomorrow or the next day!)
If you'll humor a pre-1945 N-Frame, here's my Hand Ejector, 2nd Model made in 1916 for the Brits.

Yep, and they look really nice. The MIM parts and such don't bother me, but the damn internal lock is a deal-breaker. I'd have bought one of the new 25-2 ones for my son if it didn't have the lock, but as soon as I researched it I lost all interest in getting one. I could never live with myself if I gave my son a gun that might lock up and cost him his life.
Thus, I'm "cursed" with being "stuck" with the real "classics!"
