What's has been the hardest S&W for you to find

4" 686 sans keyhole. I kinda sorta lurked/searched for a year till a no dash showed up at my LGS. The ink never dried on the price tag. I was NOT disappointed. It's now my favorite. And lets just say I paid WAAAY too soon. ;)

I have been watching for a Model 625 mountain gun in 45colt.
 
A 27-2 3.5 inch minty for what it is worth. I have seen a few nice ones, but they where way up there in price, not even close for me.......
 
SEROIUS itch at the moment for the PC 27-8 3.5" 8 shooter. Know this is a later variant than this forum deals with but you did ask. :)

ANYONE have one they'd part with?

Have cash, Smith's to trade, children and/or body parts to sell. :) (okay, you can't have my kids/grandkids, but some of my body parts may be available )
 
I'm always watching for a Pre-21, 1950 .44 Military 4". Had a 5" for a minute, but it just didn't satisfy !

I thought I was being realistic in looking for a 4" 67-2 or 15-6 in new-ish condition w/ box. Not so much.
 
I may be a bit weird but have a thing for the older model Bodyguard .38 w/o the lock.
 
As a kid I loved Miami Vice, and still do........so I have been looking for a blue Bodyguard just like Tubbs used in the series:)

I also need the S&W 645 and 4506 .45's that Sonny carried, to complete my Miami Vice S&W collection:D

I want it to have the same magic powers that Tubbs' gun had to, the ability to make pinpoint accurate shots out to 300 yards and to let me shoot 5 bad guys with machine guns before they can shoot me:) "Crockett!!!!.......POW POW!"
 
Like a few of the previous posters, I'm still looking for a really nice Model 27 with a 3 1/2" barrel that isn't through the roof. I either find them totally abused or way overpriced. I'd like to find a nice shooter for a nice price, or an absolutely mint condition revolver for a relatively fair price. I may have to lower or raise my standards.

A funny thing is that I've been running into really nice Model 28's (another favorite) at acceptable prices at every turn. I've picked up a bunch of them because I have a weakness for N-frames, but my hunt continues.
 
The hardest one to get is one of the easiest to find........I saw Patton's Registered Magnum in the Patton Museum outside of Ft. Knox a little over a year ago. Anyone can go see it, but there's no way to buy it!
 
This one. I wanted one of the first Combat Magnums and it took five years before it came my way. Paid dearly for it and would do so again. Stocks are numbered to the gun.

Nice, does it have a 6 or 10 groove backstrap?

Besides an early CM like one above ,
I would like to find a hb 4" 17-5 and a 4" 17-6 full underlug.
 
I'd have to say the thing I've wanted most but have only ever seen one example of ("seen" by way of a calguns classified ad) is the Model 520. Guy knew what he had and wanted to trade for something I didn't have.
