Thanks Mackay. To my mind, the 29-5 Classic DX's were the last of the truly fine M29's S&W made: all the endurance package upgrades, but still with the forged hammer and trigger; drilled and tapped for a scope, but no internal lock.
I agree.
Probably the true Apex of the Model 29.

The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world.
