Smith & Wesson Model 629-4 .44 Rem Magnum, 8 3/8 in Barrel, Stainless, DA/SA Revolver (1990s)
This Smith & Wesson Model 629-4 stands out as a 1990s-era, stainless-steel .44 Rem Magnum with the long 8 3/8 inch standard-profile barrel and a serrated top rib. The -4 revision features a factory-drilled and tapped topstrap and predates both MIM lockwork and the internal lock. It combines classic S&W N-frame strength with adjustable sights and a fluted six-shot cylinder.

What’s Included
- Smith & Wesson Model 629-4 .44 Rem Magnum revolver
The 8 3/8 inch stainless-steel barrel is the standard-profile (non-full underlug) type and features a serrated top rib. This configuration delivers the classic long-barrel 629 look with the benefit of a lighter muzzle profile.
The -4 revision is factory-drilled and tapped on the topstrap and predates later changes, including MIM lockwork (-5) and the internal lock (-6). This places the gun in a desirable transitional period for many S&W enthusiasts.
Construction is all stainless steel with a brushed finish on the frame, cylinder, and receiver. The cylinder is fluted and holds six rounds of .44 Remington Magnum.
Sights are fully adjustable iron sights: a ramped, pinned front blade paired with the S&W micrometer-click adjustable rear. The action is DA/SA with an exposed hammer and a smooth-faced trigger.
Made in the United States during the 1990s, the Model 629 is the stainless-steel counterpart to the Model 29, bringing corrosion resistance to a proven N-frame .44 Magnum platform.
