Smith&Wesson 629 Competitor 4,5 mm 6" is a CO2 air revolver that is a faithful replica of the modern version of the revolver of the same name — created on the basis of the classic Model 629 design intended for competitive revolver shooting. Heavy metal construction, impressive shooting performance and a realistic loading system are the main advantages of this airgun.
The revolver features a heavy construction made entirely of metal (frame, inner barrel, cylinder) polished to a high gloss. Only the profiled grips are made of soft anti‑slip rubber.
Licensed Smith & Wesson markings are applied to the barrel and frame. The air revolver has a 6" barrel, making it best suited for shooting at short and medium distances. Smith&Wesson 629 uses mechanical sighting devices consisting of a fixed front sight (with a contrasting insert) and a rear sight adjustable vertically and horizontally. Shooting comfort and a secure grip are ensured by rubber grip panels with anatomical finger grooves.
The revolver features a realistic loading mechanism effectively imitating the mechanism of a Smith Wesson revolver. The system consists of a rotating cylinder and metal cartridge replicas into which a steel diabolo pellet is inserted. Prepared cartridges are loaded into the 6‑shot cylinder. After firing, the cartridge cases can be pushed out using the ejector, just like in the original firearm. The shells are reusable, although for greater convenience it is worth having a spare set.
The revolver is powered by compressed carbon dioxide supplied from a 12 g CO2 capsule. The fired pellet reaches a high muzzle velocity, allowing accurate shooting at distances over 30 m. Installing and replacing the CO2 capsule is simple and takes only a few seconds. Simply slide the grip back, insert the capsule into the grip and tighten it with the key permanently attached to the grip panel. The revolver is characterized by impressive shooting efficiency. Using a quality capsule allows even up to 60 shots with consistent muzzle velocity.
The revolver uses a double‑action SA/DA trigger mechanism, meaning the shot can be fired in double action or after manually cocking the hammer. During transport or carrying, the trigger mechanism can be locked using the manual safety (cylinder release) located on the left side of the frame.
