Default New member from IN

Hello, my name is John from Indiana. Lurked here several times before finally deciding to jump in. I'm a 32-year volunteer firefighter and also a IT professional. First S&W was my first revolver; a 66-2, which my wife LOVES...so I had to start buying more. Have a 686 no dash that been thinking of sending back for recall(I've been reading that thread). Someday I'd like to get a 29 and a 19.

Look forward to learning more from all the experts here!

Glad to see another Hoosier on board (though I've been out here in the high desert for thirty years now) - have a breaded pork tenderloin sandwich for me, would you?

Wow, what a great welcoming party! Just boxed up my 686 no dash to send back for recall work.
Nice to see some fellow firefighters here too. Tenderloin sandwich? Oh ya, some local county fairs coming up soon!

Gonna go back to LGS later today to see if that 19-3 4" Nickel is still there. It was clean, locked up tight, but needed a good cleaning. Forcing cone looked fine too...asking $500, which I thought was a good deal compared to what I've seen at the past few IN gun shows I've been to. Most blue 19s I've seen are over $700. They also had a 686+ 3" that looked sweet too...decisions, decisions...

Thanks again guys for all the warm welcomes and great advice I've received so far!
