Over in the Lounge, Dean Charron (son of prolific S&W designer, Dwayne Charron) has posted links to a 64 minute (it should have been much longer, imho) interview from 2005 with Dwayne Charron.

It is a "Must Listen" for any dedicated S&W enthusiast.

I learned a lot, and I thought I knew a lot before I listened!

You will hear not only of Dwayne, but of the evolution of manufacturing, of S&W, and of course, the guns.

Just a couple of spoilers:

Are you curious about the plastic Model 39? (There were two!)

Love/Hate the "big ear" adjustable sight? (I LOVE THEM!)

It's in there, too.

Do yourself a BIG favor and click on the link.
