Awesomeness that you dad carried that gun for 13 years!
That is EXACTLY what I would have been carrying. To a T.
The “Goodyears” in this case should not be a word of derision because they are exactly what are needed. They don’t get beat up being used every day, nor mar things that it will inevitably bump into.
Some may find them ugly, but they were not built for beauty. They are function before form.
And they are not that ugly, they obviously are based on the OEM target stocks.
The 4” is better for everyday carry, and the hard chrome is perfect for durability. I love nickled S&Ws but if it were my carry gun I’d hard chrome it too. That was no safe queen!
That gun to your dad was a valued tool. It means even more to you and glad to hear you will never sell it. You should not.
It protected him, now it protects you and yours. The way it was intended.
