Howdy from Texas
I just picked up another S&W revolver.
It's a model 35.
Needs some TLC as it's a stereotypical sock drawer gun. However the cylinders and bore are great.
It's got some scabs on it that I need to clean up. Then I need to decide if I want to have it refinished.
Trying to find what year it was born.

Greetings from the Oregon Coast!
We like photos around here, and the serial number would help a lot in determining age.

I'm going to clean it up as best I can tomorrow. Then I get some pics up. She looks really bad now with the scabs.
