That's a birthday present you won't forget! Looks brand new and that case color on hammer and trigger jumps out. Happy birthday!

Congratulations! I remember my first Model 29-2......it was in 1971 I think. Still got it and it has accumulated a number of friends. Enjoy!
 
Nice piece. You <U>must</U> be feeling lucky.

Here's a picture of my original "Dirty Harry" shoulder holster as sold by Lawman Leather Goods and below is a copy of the flyer they sent me (circa 1975). I thought $59.95 was a lot of money for a holster back then.

Fantastic acquistion! Congrats! I love the 29-2 "Dirty Harry Specials" so much I got two of them last year, lucking out at gun shows. Here they are:

First, congratulations, Drumrod, on a fine revolver !!
I have a question for you guys, I have a 29-2, ser# N6041XX, but mine has a 6" barrel (actually 5 7/8"). I believe mine was DOB of 79-80. My question is did they make 29-2's with both length barrels, or has my barrel been changed along the way ?

Smith changed the barrel length to 6 inches in 1979-about the same time the 629 came out.
