I'm trying to determine if this revolver comes with a DX style front sight.

Thanks.

Good question.

I had some several years ago that did, but who knows what S&W is doing now.

Looks like this one does

I don’t have one but did just look at one when I was in the market at my LGS.  It had the regular pinned on front sight, not the DX easy to replace version.  I’ve looked at a bunch of Model 29’s and 629’s lately and I haven’t seen that sight offered on any new guns.

The one that Colt posted above is interesting.  I haven’t ran across that one.

Here’s my last purchase.

For what it's worth, the current image of the 629 Classic w/ 5 inch barrel shows a DX style front sight.


The 629 w/ 6 -1/2 inch barrel shows the standard pinned front sight.
