    Fluted cylinder? I hope that it isn't, sure would look purdie with a smooth cylinder and a short barrel. Or, the best case scenario would be a factory option either way.....

    Factory Option? We are lucky we even get S&W here let alone a gun catered to our redunculous laws. AFAIK, it is the regular 629 Classic and appointments, but with the 4.2" barrel.

    The 4 inch 629's never have a full underlug, it's always the 3/4 (which i prefer). So i am hoping for that

    could it not just be ordered separately?

    Well hope I win, SCREW the 3/4 underlug. Actually, I don't care, I don't mind the look, just like the rugers. Just as long as they come.

    Where did you get the news?
    full underlug
    Maybe I'll look for a longer barreled 629 and have it visit the smith for a new shorter hair-do.
    Either way I guess I have to start saving up...

    Hey folks, found this picture of a Model 29 that was a custom build from S&W with a 4 1/2" barrel. They rave about the the nice proportions of the partial underlug and the barrel to frame proportions. I tend to agree, something like this in 4.25" Stainless 629 would be amazing. The bead blasted finish from the previous post I made would finish this off as a truly "Canadian" special run.
    Thanks for bringing in the 4.2" 686 North Sylva. We appreciate the efforts by Dom and the guys.
