Engraving, Craftsmanship, and Condition

Joseph Condon’s Work

Condon’s scrollwork is executed with fine detail and gold inlay trim. Distinctive gold-inlaid elements include a sheep on the right side of the frame and the cursive letters “LF” on the left—personal touches tied to Lamar Fike. These inlays and the documented chain of ownership significantly elevate the revolver’s appeal to both collectors and museums.

Ballistics and Practical Notes

.44 Magnum is a high-performance cartridge favored for its stopping power and historical role in large-frame revolvers. With a 4″ barrel on this 29-2, expect a balance between manageable handling and retained velocity—suitable for display, historical study, and controlled range demonstration by qualified owners. As a collector’s piece priced at $75,000.99, its value centers on rarity and provenance rather than daily carry use.
