Here are my two S&Ws. The top is a M25-2 with a 6 1/2" barrel and it is a great shooter. I used it in competition enough to want a 4" barrel version, so I made the bottom revolver from a M28-2 by reboring and rifling the existing barrel (Dick Nickel, deceased, did that) and installing a cylinder from a 25-2. Also installed a frame lug for a 25-2 and eventually reshaped the grips to better fit my hand. I did round the grip frame but prefer the fit of the square style, should have considered that before I grabbed the file!



This 45 ACP came back to me and I did not realize how much I had missed it.



Not a Colt, but an Italian replica. Good shooter but it will not replace the 28-2 as my American Express revolver.
