Shhhh.... She's soaking in it!
Break Free that is! Will reassemble and go shoot this weekend with a full write up as well. Waiting on the Standard Catalog of S&W too for reference. Heaven forbid I get anything wrong about this gun! Tam would be all over me if I did that!
She's not real pretty, but in good shape (uh, the pistol, not Tam. I assume she is all sweetness and light)!
Nice recovery, there at the end. :)
ReplyDeletePretty cool!
ReplyDeleteI recently sold one in mint condition, in its blue box. Then again I'm known for doing such stupid things....
ReplyDeleteRev- Thanks, uh I think!
ReplyDeleteTJ- I will let you know how it goes!
Stephen- You run across ANY S&W and Colt's in the box, please let me know!
All these S&Ws are going to make me cry about selling one of mine when I was young and stupid.
ReplyDelete45er- I will forgive anyone that says "young and stupid". The fact that you are still here proves you got over it.
ReplyDeleteStill though, I kick myself for letting some things go during that period!
Mmmmm... Highway Patrolman! :)
ReplyDeleteSweet gun...
ReplyDeleteDann in Ohio
Tam- Any wisdom you wish to share would be welcome.
ReplyDeleteGGGG- Thanks! It will get a workout this weekend with .38 and .357 ammo.
Whattaya mean she's not pretty? Form and function are something to see!
ReplyDeletePrimo! Love N Frame Smiths!
ReplyDeleteBringing ANY old gun back is worth it, even if it IS a S&W :-)
ReplyDeleteGood looking wheel gun. I've seen a bunch available on different sites this past two weeks. Must have been a fairly large department trade in somewhere.
ReplyDeleteBrooke- I changed my mind after shooting it some more, you are right!
ReplyDeleteNFO- Sigh... What am I going to do with you? LOL!
John- This one appears to be from '78.
