nice looking revolver.
IIRC Fiocchi still sells ammo for it.
Bill-An excellent example (as usual)-how is it to hold with the vertical pistol grips?
Very Comfortable with natural pointing.... It has never been fired so I will not fire it...BILLby lithgow

Very nice revolver; just shot my 1915-acceptance date Gasser with Fiocchi ammo on Sat and it performed flawlessly!

I bought a Swiss M29 revolver a couple of months ago (still at the dealers)-he also had a couple of the preceding M1882 models and one of a number of changes between the two I noticed was the vertical grips on the M29-was wondering why they were changed, I suppose this answers the question!
Excellent rev. BILL as always. Thank you for posting.
Best regards, Thanos.
