Lew Horton 629-1? 3" 44mag

[8892USMC]

Can anyone enlighten me about the status and "value" of a 629-1 Lew Horton 3" in 44mag? I haven't found anything on the forum about it and I am wondering what the market is on it. It's really nice and I would rather not go in blind and get taken for a ride because I think it's cool. - it's boxed with a buckle...

My buddy just bought a 629-4 LH and emailed the lew horton lady and had it verified per the serial number. She will give you a letter on it for like 60.00 dollars

I guess the thing with the 629-1 is that there were only 5000 and LH distributed 3000? So it doesn't pertain to any better quality of options? My FIL has a 629-5 that's brushed finish with pacmeyres on it- I have no clue the 629-1 is nickel / stainless - totally stock. I just want to know what the HONEST price is for it. You know?

A 629 with any or no dash is Stainless Steel, a 44 mag that looks like that would be a Nickel 29-?.

Here is my 629-1 3" Lew Horton, and the letter I got back in 2014. $1500 would not buy mine

I traded mine to a buddy in exchange for somewhere between $900 and $1000 in poker debt. That was 15 years ago if that helps you.
