Smith & Wesson 629-3 .44 magnum with 6.5" Barrel in excellent condition. This 629-3 has the Endurance Package. NO BOX...
 In 1989 S&W began to add the Endurance Package to both the 29 and 629. Using high-speed photos, Smith & Wesson engineers studied the .44 Magnum under recoil and concluded that problems arose as various parts moved under recoil. The frame recoiled backwards and the cylinder pin did not. The result was the cylinder was free to rotate. Heavy recoil was causing the trigger to kick back and the hammer was bouncing and hitting the primer a second time resulting in two indents on the primer. The engineers went to work. Longer notches were machined in the cylinder so the cylinder stop could not bounce out under heavy recoil. A bolt block was added that keeps the bolt from transmitting movement to the trigger.  All mounting studs for rebound slide, trigger, hammer, etc., were radiused where they attach to the frame as round corners are less likely to "tear" then sharp corners; all receiving holes were also radiused for the same reason. To help increase strength, the bearing surface on the cylinder yoke was increased and the yoke also received a new heat treatment. All of these improvements were phased into the S&W .44 Magnums in the late 1980s and those with the complete package have a noticeable longer bolt slot cut into the cylinder.
