I picked up a NIB nickle plated 29-2 a few days ago. It is crispy new, with slight signs of the test firing of three cylinders, wood case, perfect lining, accessories and all paperwork was under the liner. It is a 6.5" barrel.
I was reading the Standard catalogue of S&W and they say the 6.5 inch bbl is a premium even though it is more common than the 6". Whats the deal with that?
It appears to be from the mid-1970's.
I bought it to shoot it, but it is so new that I'm thinking that would be a terrible waste. Should it get used or should I keep it as is?
