Just ANOTHER reason to buy a quality used older gun!

Rumor has it that in the near future Colt is supposed to resurrect their Dick Special in the DSll configuration (38/357). Since I do not work for them I am only stating what I have heard and don't know it to be fact or wishful thinking, but IF IT IS true and they do it with NO I/L I think that it will be the straw that force S&W to drop the I/L. Though I am a dyesd-in-the-wool S&W man, (older ones that is) I'd sooner buy a new Colt with no locks than a Smith with the lock should the older supply of Smiths ever dry up.

Just saying..........
