Frequently Asked Questions
Smith & Wesson Model 29 for sale
Is the S&W Model 29 still in production?
Yes, Smith & Wesson currently produces the Model 29 in .44 Magnum. Several variants are available through retailers, typically priced around $1,174. The revolver remains popular among hunters and sport shooters.
How much does a Model 29 Smith & Wesson cost?
Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolvers typically cost around $1,174, with most listings falling between $1,065 and $1,350 depending on barrel length and finish. Prices vary across retailers and may change based on condition and availability.
What year is the S&W Model 29?
Smith & Wesson introduced the Model 29 in 1955. The .44 Magnum revolver was first manufactured in 1956/1957, and a June 1957 change order officially designated it the "Model 29" when S&W adopted a numbered naming system. It remains in production today.
What is the difference between S&W Model 29 and 29-2?
The 29-2, introduced in 1962, changed the cylinder stop and eliminated the trigger guard screw compared to the original Model 29. It retained the pinned barrel and recessed cylinder. Later variants like the 29-3 and beyond gradually removed those features. Functionally, all versions perform comparably.
What is the most collectible S&W revolver?
Collectors prize the Registered Magnum most highly—Smith & Wesson's first .357 Magnum revolver, produced 1935–1938 in only 5,500 units. The Triple Lock and Model 3 American also command strong interest. Condition, rarity, and provenance drive values significantly higher than any current production model.
Can a 44 Magnum stop a grizzly bear?
A .44 Magnum can kill a grizzly and, with proper loads like 300-grain hardcast or jacketed solids, delivers strong penetration through heavy material. Heavier options like the .45-70 are preferred for bear defense, while 10mm semiautos are increasingly popular for backcountry carry.
