I found a 629 with a full underlug 8" barrel yesterday used for $719. Sounds high but I am going to check this out on Gun Broker next.

Anyway, what was the last revision on the 629? 629-4? 629-5?

Also anyone know how to read the serial numbers to determine year of manufacture?

Thanks.
 
Well that does seem high.....$600 appears to be about right. I need to look at it again maybe it was new.
 
Greeting's Kobra,

Just fuel for thought, but I gave $509.95 + 8% sales tax for
a 629-5 "Classic" with a 5" barrel back in July of 2000. I'm
reasonably sure the 8" barrel would probably be more, if the
gun is NIB.

As far as Smith model designation's go, I believe they are up
to -6, on the 629? This may be the model approved for sales
in Kalifornia.
