Model 29-10

[SRS308]

I wanted a Model 29-2 for my birthday. I had one one on GB but the seller didn't want to sell it after the action for some reason. Then I bought one from this place in Texas. I paid, had my gun shop send them their FFL. Then after a couple of weeks I called them to find out what's happening. They told me it was derived a couple a days ago. Well, when I checked the tracking, it was delivered to Mississippi. Wrong state. So I cancelled that order.

I said to myself that I must be pushing my luck trying to get one from the Internet.

So long story short, I found a mom and pop gun shop that happen to have a new unsealed 29-10 in thier inventory.

So Happy Birthday to myself.

Thanks guys.

I can't wait to shot it. Hopefully Thursday night after work.

I paid $1300 for the package. Plus $60 for the last 2 boxes of 44 special. Man, I didn't realize those are hard to find.

Congratulations and Happy Birthday! I have wanted a 6-1/2" 29-10 for a long time, but they are non-existent around here. And even online 4" 29-10s are everywhere. Makes me wonder if S&W actually makes that many more of the 4"ers than they do the 6-1/2"ers.

I am so happy for you that you found one...now go shoot and enjoy it!!

Got a chance after work and went shooting. The 29-10 shot pretty good at 25 feet if you ask me.

You won't regret it. The new ones are good guns. Happy Birthday and enjoy your new 44 Magnum!

I was on a search for a 29-10, 6.5" for a long time as well - could not find one anywhere. Ironic that one popped up in a small shop in New Hampshire, that happened to be seen by a fellow forum member who had read that I was looking for one. He contacted me and even went to the shop and inspected & photographed the gun for me. A week later, it was enroute to my LGS in Arizona.

Interesting that the small shops seem to get these more often than the big dealers.

You have a beautiful, classic gun there. Enjoy it.

Nice. In the N Frame the blue ones are my favorite. Makes me want to watch a few Dirty Harry movies.

Thank you!

Now that was cool story how you got yours. I always say that there are a lot of good people on all theses different forums that help out other members.

Congratulations. It would either need to be very cheap or very rare to get me to buy a gun on the internet! Nice revolver.
