I was watching an episode from about 1981. The "Bad Girl" digs into Robin Masters' gun safe and pulls out a pristine M19 2 1/2 inch in nickel plate with round-butt factory stocks.

Higgins walks in and she shoots him. Later Magnum confronts her and convinces her to give up the M19.

It totally ruined the rest of the show for me when the M19 was first viewed. My continual thought for the rest of the show was..."I wish I could go back then and buy one of those brand, factory, new!"

Not even the later bikinied lassies could get my mind off of the S&W.

I am too old.
