In my original post I forgot to list an L frame. I know that newer models are outside the year range of our forum group, but I want my theme to be as complete as possible. It will now take me six guns to pull off my master plan. Note that they will all be .38 special or .357 magnum:
Model 14-1, K, 6", 1961, 6", Blue, Diamond Targets, Done
Model 10-5, K, 4", 1968, Blue, Magna PC Stocks, Done
Model 27-2, N, 5", 1977, Nickel, Football Targets, Done
Model 10 K or 36 J, 3", 1980s, Blue, Round Butt, TBD
Model 686, L, 4" or 6", 1980s, Stainless, Cut Out Targets, TBD
Model 640-1, Magnum J, 2", 1996, Stainless, Round Butt, Done
These models and years have other varieties of features such as pinned, pinned and recessed, not pinned, full under lug, shape of cylinder release. If I find the right Model 10 or 36 then there will be a 3" bull barrel.
I have a Model 10-8 (bull barrel 1984) and a Model 59 Automatic (with box, 1977), but they will have to be traded or sold to finance the acquisition of the 686 and 10 or 36. I have a left over 1947 M&P 5" that I've promised to a friend, and a Model 19-2 4" (1964) that could be swapped into the mix in place of the Model 10-5 (they are both keepers).
I know it seems silly for me to be carrying on about this, but my gun show days are about done (legs and back don't work well any more) and I think sites like Gun Trader are an insult. This set of revolvers will be a nice way to memorialize my active decades of collecting and shooting.
