All 3 of those are on my list of models I have to own at some point, and you got them all in one month. Congrats! I bet you're very excited. You did very well. Enjoy!

If August is like July, you *could* make some profit. But if you're like most of us, the safe just gets more residents...

Does anyone know if the grips on the 58 could be original?The serial number is S258XXX.It seems to me that it should have diamond service grips.There is a penciled number on the inside of the right grip,but it's too faint to read.
Thanks

Nice guns, all three. I think the stocks on the 58 should be diamond magnas. Check this earlier post for more info and pictures of S stamped 58 stocks:
S&W 58 .41 magnum
Enjoy.

Thanks,Jeff.I sort of figured they weren't original when I saw the photos on Gunbroker,but I bought it anyway.I was pleasantly surprised when I picked it up yesterday.The photos didn't do it justice.Almost to pretty to carry and shoot,almost.

The below model 58, serial number S258381 has serial number matching stocks (grips) per my records. The serial number, as best I recall, is stamped onto the backside of the left stock (grip). Even though our serial numbers our close I cannot tell if your serial number is before or after mine but even if after I would think it should have had diamond stocks (grips).

I'm not even married, but if my July had looked like yours, I think at best it would have been Ramen™ noodles for August through about October at the Frog Pad!! It would have been worth it, though!

Unless you took the model 17 and 58 out and used them to put food on the table. Then you could have the guns and still eat pretty good!
