I had been wanting a 29 for a long time. About a year ago, two of my local shops had them.
When I finally got serious about buying.... one had already sold...so I went to the other shop. This 29 had some weird spots in the finish that I assumed from handling/damage. The shop said they'd send it back to S&W to be re-finished or repaired and that I should check back in a couple weeks. I called a few days later and asked if they'd let me know when it returns, and they said they would. They also asked me to send an email so they'd have my info, etc. I complied.
A few weeks later I happened to be in their area and stopped by the shop. The same one, with the same issue was still in the case. I haven't been back. Sure seemed to me like they weren't interested.
I ordered from another shop in October and it finally came in. I'm anxious to give it a try.... I am smitten. (Is it OK for me to say that on Valentine's Day? The wife may not take kindly to that...)
EDIT: Decided to give this a good look as the finish looked a bit, well, blotchy or cloudy. I assume when I picked it up that it was from the paper it's shipped in and maybe needed to be oiled. I tried a few different oils, silicone cloth...nothing helped. I stopped at the dealer today who suggested a call to S&W first. If it needs to go back, they'll be glad to take of that for me..
A few days late. H&K SP5.

Found a Mark 23, so had to get it.... Then found the P30L in a different shop. I am poor now, but my H&K family grew.

My two new versacarry holsters finally arrived. Ordered them a month + ago when they were having a "super" sale! They did say it would take much longer due to demand. Sig 365 on the smaller one on left, and Shield 45 on right. The holsters are extremely tight when they arrive for sure!

Those are great looking holsters, love the leather and stitching.
9 pics, so a 2 parter.
