S&W 629 front sight question

jweste · May 3, 2008, 12:02 AM

Alright maybe I posted my question in the wrong spot. I wanted to know if my S&W 629 Classic PP had a pinned front sight or is it spring loaded? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The only m.29 schematic I have shows a fixed front sight on a short barrel, but a separate fixed sight base with holes for 2 horizontal pins for a removable front sight assembly on the long barrel. You should be able to tell by looking which you have?
