I was able to pick this rascal up today, but no time to clean it yet. Guy at the shop said folks were calling about it several times a day. (They had it listed on Armslist when I found it) I think it was poorly stored on the left side, or maybe in one of those foam lines cases, and moisture got to it. Somebody saved it before it got real bad, and apparently dabbed some cold blue on the slide, but I've got some cleaning to do. Bought 3 more mags from a fellow member and hope to run a couple hundred rounds through it over the weekend.
Somebody here (sorry I forgot) mentioned the grip recall to me and I checked, no dimples. I called S&W and filed a claim for a new set, but they are out. Who knows when they'll get anymore, but I'm on the list. These are actually pretty good I think.
Thanks for all the positive feedback on it. It is the best $250 dollar S&W I own.
Did I mention it was dirty???
