Going through some of my S&W "paper" recently, I came across (re-discovered 
) this photo of Ronald Reagan's M29. The photo was in a stack of brochures/flyers/docs I received from a former Salesman that worked for S&W up til ~1990ish timeframe. A buddy of mine connected us about 15 years back and he was kind enough to provide his collection of stuff. This flyer was in a folder, but no info provided. Being that he worked for the factory, I'm sure that the photo is an official factory photo, likely taken after the embellishments were done but before it was presented. If you note the photography style, the gun appears to be sitting on a glass surface, you can see the reflection of the gun against the blue background. I mention this since the factory was using this style of photography for some factory flyers/catalogs in the late 80's - early 90's timeframe.
Beyond that, I don't know much about it, but believe the gun is probably at the Reagon Library, if anyone has seen it and can share info on it, that would be great.
Last comment, in my photo it appears to be a post-pinned gun but I can't be sure, so I'm posting it here for your viewing pleasure...
