S153970 shipped on December 7, 1956. Fifteen years after the attack on Pearl Harbor and now it is fifty-two years old.

Bill,
Do you have one for every day of the year? Remember Christmas is coming. I think you have my address. It is already boxed, so all you have to do is wrap it!

Doc, is there no end?
How about taking a picture of your whole S&W collection for Christmas for the forum, or do you have do it from a plane to fit them all in?
Great looking gun again.

I figured I was probably the youngest regular in the revolver section. You've got me beat by a day less than 2 years, though.

I've been bombed on that date plenty of times. My favorite artillery is the CR-750 (750 mL of Crown Royal).
