Looking for a 629 Classic. Prefer 5" barrel. Prefer a pre-lock.

Possible trades include a 1975 vintage Winchester 94 30-30 with ammo and reload supplies, Japanese WW II rifles, or...

Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder.

Engraving is... nice. Not for me though

There are a few 5” 629’s on GB right now. The classic pre lock guns are selling pretty damned high .

That's a real beauty queen. I prefer mine to be less pretty and more shooty.

You'll definitely like that 5" 629 Classic. I got mine (brand new, 629-6 with an easily removable, but unsightly, lock) around the middle of last year and it's easily my favorite gun. Has almost identical weight and balance to the 6" half-lug but is much more packable. I often wear mine IWB just because I can, but it also carries great OWB, in a chest holster, or in a chest pack.

I'm watching several on GunBroker. From what I've read, the 5" is just about the perfect compromise between the 6½" for range and hunting vs the 4" for carry.

what do you mean by "pre-lock"

 

[S&W Fan]

A S&W revolver with the internal lock. Note the lock just above the cylinder latch.
