I have a S&W 29-2 nickel finish with an 8 3/8 barrel and original wood grips.
It is in excellent condition (only a barely noticeable very little scratch toward the muzzle on the right side), when keep the trigger depressed it locks like a vault, no wiggle whatsoever.
Yesterday, visiting one of my favourite gun shop in the area, I saw an identical 29-2 (same barrel length 8 3/8, pinned and recessed, original wood grips) blued.
I never been a fan of nickel finished or stainless steel guns, I like more the blue finishing.
I thought about trading it (at no more than par.....nickel finishing should command a higher price) but the revolver is not exactly in the same conditions as mine.....it ihas a little bit of fading blueing towarsd the muzzle (not too much but definitely noticeable) and the cylinder it has a little bit of very noticeable wiggle when you depress the trigger.
Both mine and this revolver do not come with an original box or cleaning kit.
Should I pass??
Thanks!!
