Default Bought one upon introduction and still have it

They were only made for two or three years and were the only service grade kit guns offered by S&W. I was lured by the round butt, fixed sights and 3" barrel. It made the perfect tackle box revolver with it's stainless steel construction and available 22LR auxillary cylinder, which I also have. With standard 22WMR loadings, it is brutal on the ears and is only suitable for range use with hearing protection. However the use of the magnum cylinder with either Winchester Dynapoints or Winchester WRF loadings makes it bearable for occasional field use. It's beauty comes into play with the LR cylinder which adds soo much to it's versitility. Living on a lake for 24 years, it was my constant companion mostly in my tackle box. I loaded two chambers with shotshells and four with 40gr SVs It was the perfect snake medicine for me. I will never sell it.
