Here are the ones I have owned. The six inch is gone now.



629-1, Six inch




629-3, Three inch, Lew Horton, Performance Center, Mag Comp or Carry Comp





629-6, 2.5 inch, Camfour gun

Beautiful
That pair of fixed sighted guns are pretty awesome. Most people have never seen one in person(including me) let alone have a pair.

Thanks for posting them up

Thanks, I've got a line on a third one, a 629-5 Camfour, 2.5 inch without the lock. My cousin has it and I'm slowly wearing him down with trade offers. Hopefully soon.

My 629-5 "Flat Lands Gun"...

Oh wait, it is actually a "Mountain Gun", or as my hunting buddy calls it, the "Flinch-Master 2000".

Wow I have some catching up to do! Although if I ever run across some of those special models, I'd have to scoop 'em up.

Here's my 629-2 Mountain Revolver, a restoration project that began in April 2009. It had been internally 'bubba'd', the screws were buggered, and the finish was all scratched up. Nelson Ford fixed the internal problems, replaced the screws, and refinished it. Over the years it has worn factory Hogues, Ahrends, and Pachmayr grips and stocks. About a year ago I acquired a set of S&W target stocks that had been heavily modified into custom combats. Last month they came back from DWFAN with a new and durable finish. They look right at home on the restored MR.

This is a 5" 629-3 Classic. Good balance, recoil absorption, and accuracy in a manageable barrel length.

Had to show off my first and favorite .44 Magnum, a 6.5" 29-6 Classic. I've had this cannon for 18 years.

OK, one more. This is the great grand daddy of the 629 and all S&W N-frame hand ejectors, the .44 Military Model of 1908, the "Triple-lock". This one was built about 1914 and shipped in November 1916.

All beautiful guns so far. Some are exceptionally so!
Here is my one and only 629. it's my whitetail hunting rig.
5" power ported -3 Classic

My 629-2 along with my 686-6

It took me a while to find the right loads for this one but now that I did I just love shooting it. My 686 has always shot good with just about everything.

All beautiful guns, the unfluted 3" (is it a dash 2 or 2E) is looking very nice with the light colored combats.

 

[robvious]

6" has been tuned by previous owner... they did a nice job
8 3/8" is bone stock... 6" gets to go hunting...

1911-10mm, where did you get those light-colored Combats? They look like maple but whatever they are made from, they are gorgeous!

I agree. 1911-10MM you've always had GREAT tastes in combats. I can't help but be jealous!
