Hello - after doing some reading here and other sites, I took the plunge and picked up a new shooter.
I had a 629 6" in the late 80's, sold it when I was sent overseas, haven't had another Smith until this week.
I was looking for another 6", but after my reading and searching, I ended up getting a 629-4 classic 5", that per the prior owner has been shot less than 75 times (condition looks like it).
The gun has been customized a little, plain black front sight, magnaported, action job (wolff springs, trigger is super!) and ball detent on crane (all done by Cylinder and Slide, have the work order/receipt). Also has Herrett stocks to go with the Hogues.
Got it for $550 - sound like a reasonable price for a shooter?
Thanks, Tim
