I sold a tapered barrel 3" model 36 to a guy recently who owned one of those matte-finish 36-2's. Nice gun. I don't care for the DAO feature on it or on the NYPD specials, but I do like a bobbed hammer & a matte finish. Although I prefer pinned barrels, I wouldn't mind one of those DAO matte-blue 37-2's that S&W produced in later years-- I believe one batch in the 1990's & another around 2005 or so.
