I have a couple of guns with the lock. I'm not fond of the lock but the models were not available until after the tragic lock debacle occurred.

At this point, one gun has nearly 5 cases of ammo through it and the other one has close to three. No issues with either lock; hopefully that's a good indicator.

Good luck with your 29. Keep looking for a sweet deal an early one but in the meantime you have a gun you can simply enjoy shooting.
