Model 65 Lady Smith Follows Me Home
I haven't been to my LGS in a couple of weeks so I stopped in this morning and I found this in the case. It's in great shape and should be a good shooter. My wife's first words, after holding it were, "I like that finish, and it's really balanced. Thanks!". Oh well, I'm trying to get my Model 49 back anyway, maybe a trade will work out (I'm asking for "boot").

Those are great revolvers. Stainless version of the Raymond Sasia revolver specified for French equivalent of the FBI after Sasia attended some training at Quantico MANY YEARS before the FBI adopted the 3 inch 13. Model 19 picture below from a post by Swissman of this forum.

I can't really complain - I'm lucky enough to own a Model 65-3, a Model 13-3, and a Model 64-3 all with 3.0 inch barrels, but I'm so stinkin' jealous of you guys!
Congratulations on a really nice revolver - its been at the top of my grail gun list for a long time.
Regards,
Dave

So that's where all the 3" 65s are! No wonder I can't find any out here!
