This Model 29 is a mystery

If this was one of Wayne Hazelrigs Mod 29's, Wayne was known to "make up" what he really wanted. Different barrel, different cylinder, round butt a frame, etc. Between he and Dick Metcalf, and begging from Roy Jinks, he made up several to his liking. That picture of the display was the display he presented at the annual S&W meeting held in Quincy Il. I believe he won ths best display with it that year.

Richard,
If you get a chance read the Smith and Wesson letter on this gun it was not Waynes and it is not made up it is 1 of 31 that was produced by Smith and Wesson in this configuration. I'm fully aware of Wayne's artful work with some of the guns. I have in my possession one that I got a letter back from Smith and Wesson on with all the details what he had made up which I will be posting it later on.
