Michael,
The Swiss made many un-numbered 9mm barrels, for the 29. Swiss arsenals randomly put these barrels on their 29's as needed. There were a few 29's made at the very end of production with numbered 9mm barrels. They are numbered around the back ring just like the 30 cal barrels. Ones we've seen have been dated 46 or 47. The Swiss started using the 9mm P-210 in 49.

To see the month & year a 29 was made, remove the take-down lever and look underneath in the frame well.

Real 9mm 29's with un-numbered barrels can bring about $1K more than .30's.

Real numbered 9mm barrels add about $3K to the value.
