classic model 29s. It is the 10th variation of the model 29 with the cheap grips and plastic box. If it is was one of the earlier model 29s in the wood box with the blue velvet type material and new in the box, then maybe, but not this gun.

MAYBE THEY JUST SAW DIRTY HARRY ON TV

after seeing Dirty Harry. As did about 20,000 other people. And S&W kept the excitement going by only releasing 100 guns a week or so. A $200 gun that went for $500 or more at gun shows.

DURING THE SHORTAGE SOMEONE ASKED

COL. COOPER HOW HE GOT GUNS. HIS ANSWER WAS " I DON'T GET GUNS; I HAVE GUNS." THAT HAS STAYED WITH ME AND I TRY NEVER TO BE CAUGHT SHORT ON ANYTHING.

Very good.

that one would bring more, either way I am keeping it, it's too nice to let go of. Thanks for putting a value on it Gary.
