Default Not a Smith, but....
Went shooting up at Rock Castle Shooting center with a couple of friends. While getting all of the pistols together to take, I ran across one that I had not shot in a while. Its not a Smith, but I feel that it is one of the best looking semi-autos ever built. Its also one of the oldest semis that I own. The original grips kept loosing a monogram so I bought a junk pair at a gun show and did some sanding and staining. The originals are stored in the drawer. I have to say in my own opinion it is a thing of beauty. Any guess on what it is....

A forgotten beauty nonetheless! Beretta recently discontinued the import if the 80/Cheetah series to the US. It's nice to see that there still being used and appreciated!

Here's his little brother in 32. This one's an old police trade in from some place in Europe.
