One of my favorite Smith and Wessons! I had my tired, old cop's gun re-done. She had her sharp edges worn smooth by many, many presentations from the holster.

The S&W emblems were worn away. I had her front sight changed out for a new Trijicon unit, as well as her hammer and trigger polished and radiused for fast DA work.

I did the action job on her by stoning/polishing the rebound slide and changing the rebound spring to a 14 lbs unit. Perfect (and smooth) 9 lbs DA pull. I don't do SA, so it doesn't matter.

The gun shoots perfectly with my SD/HD load of the R-P 125gr Golden Saber +P BJHP. It's moving at approx. 1000 fps and is damn good Felon Repellent.

The grips are Ahrends Retro Combats in Bocote (Cordia). They feel as good as they look.
