The Pre-Model 29’s design is a true testament to the craftsmanship of Smith & Wesson, blending both aesthetic appeal and functional performance. The revolver features Coke bottle-style checkered wood grips with S&W medallions, adding a refined touch while providing excellent ergonomics and handling. The grips, often referred to as “Coke Bottle” grips due to their shape, offer a slight palm swell that enhances the user’s control, especially when firing powerful .44 Magnum rounds. This particular model is configured for double/single-action, offering the shooter the flexibility of both rapid-fire and precise, single-action shots. The counter-bored, fluted cylinder ensures smooth operation and reliable extraction, while the half-lug barrel with a shrouded extractor rod adds to the revolver's sleek and functional profile. As a collector's piece, the early Pre-Model 29 revolvers are highly sought after, with the absence of the model number on the yoke and unique serial number ranges contributing to their rarity. The S&W Pre-Model 29 remains a classic, cherished by collectors and enthusiasts for both its historical relevance and its status as a piece of handgun engineering history.
