I picked up this model 29-4, 3 inch over the weekend. It is in like new condition and came with the original box, all paperwork and unopened tool kit. So, I thought I would share a couple photos of my new gun.

Great gun, you will love it. I have the Talo version of it. I carry it for CCW sometimes.
Just an personal opinion, but having shot the gun some, I recommend the Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel for it. It's a 200 grain, reduced flash and recoil round for Defense Carry. Faster follow-up, good penetration and expansion, even in the 4 layer testing. The gun will certainly handle stouter rounds, but follow-up is slower with those rounds in a 3 inch barrel. I would go with other things if I were carrying it for Bears etc.

That is truly an all-business Model 29. Superb find. I do not know if that version came with wood, S&W-marked rubber, or those Pachs. Could you possibly show us the whole package for us to learn?
Again, very sweet model.

W...Wo...WOW! I LOVE that gun. I have a 629 3 inch and I thought IT looked great...and while mine surely means business...that blued beast right there is a sight to behold!
Congrats.

You have a beautiful revolver. I've got the stainless version 629-4 and just put one of Kurac's round butt to square smooth target stocks, and it was pleasant to shoot. Enjoy yours.

Very nice! I have one almost exactly like it, just different grips.
Hi Jeff,
What a great looking gun. Excellent pictures as well. Your 29-4 is very similar to my 629-2 Classic Hunter, circa 1988. It's pretty tough to beat those 3 inch N frames. Mine came with Pachmyers as well, that's how they shipped from the factory. I've since replaced them with these Hogue conversion grips.

The book states they were shipped with Pachmayr grips and 2532 were made in 1989. Larry
