SOLD

This is a desirable pre-lock Smith and Wesson Model 29-3 with 6in barrel. Feel perfectly free to buy this with the sole purpose of re-enacting scenes from Dirty Harry in your living room. Judgement free zone. Production date is estimated to be 1987/88, and this example comes with what appears to be its original case. It is in excellent condition, having appeared to be brought to the range a few times, but never carried or abused. Buyer will meet in Forest Grove, cash only. $850, and that includes transfer/background check. Will consider trades for military style rifles except AR-15s.
