Two New Smiths

[Chuckster62]

My FFL took in several guns and I got first pick.
Model 57 .41 mag around 1975
and a Model 29-2 produced mid 1972, both in presentation cases in mint condition.
They will get shot but not often.
These are hard to come by in Calif.
I will post photos when I can make the file smaller.
A big thank you to those who helped me determine the date of manufacture.

Congrats! Welcome to the FORUM! Those are 2 Smiths that would appeal to me! Of course I have never shot a .41, or .44 mag. I did recently pick up a beautiful 25-15 45 Colt. I do like large bore. Have a 625JM also. Remember to get those pics posted, & enjoy your guns! Bob

Welcome to the forum from Texas. You have two fine handguns. I have a 29-2 6". Love it. We love pictures. We really love range reports. Keep us posted.

Very nice. Just for information, the two presentation cases have had their inserts recovered with a velour or similar type material.

Bill, that is good to know thank you for the info. The seller also had a .45 Long Colt that I passed on. It had the same interior.

Very nice pair of N-frames. Is that M29 a 6.5" revolver?
