How many of you have 38 special revolvers

[GaryS]

Two Model 10s, 642, 36-1 3".

 

[John Patrick]

M37 no dash, 3” and M638 J frames.

M10 K frame, 4” SB.

J, K and l frames in 357 magnum, 2 1/2”, 3.125” and 4” which will, of course , accommodate 38spl.

ETA: That’s S&Ws. If you’re counting all 38spls then I’d have to add a Colt’s Diamondback 4” and 2” Agent for a total of five stamped “38 Spl.”

Colt’s pictured below.

Only one dedicated 38 Special for me -- I wish I had some others. Nickel model 15-4.

 

[Rammer Jammer]

I prefer 38s over 357 Mags. Own multiple 38s but no 357s yet.

 

[Mbrgr1]

21?

I think I have 21 38 Specials (not including the 357s, but including the 38/44s) last count, but my model 60 is the one that stays outside the safe.


Here are a couple shiny safe queens, 12-2 and 12-4

I have a few .38 Specials:

1 7/8” Model 36
2 1/8” Model 10
3” Model 36
4” Pre Model 10
4” Model 10
4” Model 15
6” Model 14.


The Model 14 and 15 are my favorites.

A lousy picture of a fabulous model 67. Sent it off to Frank Glenn for a perfect action and then John Culina did the wonderful Osage Orange combats. Shoots like a dream!!

I’ve got we’ll over a dozen .38 Specials, and a similar number of .357 Magnums. There’s also a .38 Long Colt and a .38 S&W in the menagerie. It’s hard to imagine not having a .38 around.

I have a 14-5 that is a tack driver. Also has a beautiful DA trigger

 

[HOUSTON RICK]

Like a few of us, I have no 38 special revolvers, but do enjoy shooting 38 special out of 357 mag revolvers.

 

[VaTom]

Three Smiths (Models 10-7, 15-3, 64 (no dash)) and one Colt (1956 Official Police).

I have a fondness for them after carrying one for years as a LEO.

 

[DeplorabusUnum]

Just three here. Model 10, 15, and 36. 36 is the only one I carry at times. Love the .38.

 

[John in Bismarck]

I have two S&W and two Colt revolvers chambered for 38 Special.
A 2 inch pre-36 made in 1952 that I carry regularly, a 6 inch M&P made in 1915, a 2 inch Detective Special made in 1974, and a 5 inch Army Special made in 1917. I’ve owned the DS the longest, nearly 40 years.
I wish they would make some more 38 special ammo!

 

[C Islander]

I've only got two. A 442 and a 1954 Colt Cobra.

 

[ironhead7544]

Only have one left. It is a M64-3 with a 3 inch Heavy Barrel. Bought it in early 1980ties.

Bought my first 38 Special in the late 60ties. IIRC, it was $76.50 MSRP for a 2 inch M36 Blue.

 

[Llance]

I don't have any .38 specials. Err, not the revolvers but i have a s... pot of the bullets. The wife has three. Now remember she can't shoot anything heavier than a .22 mag.

 

[.38SuperMan]

If you’re counting 357’s I have 14 plus 1 lever action carbine and a 38 S&W (not 38 special).

I shoot more 38’s than anything at the moment and haven’t shot any 357’s in years

 

[StrawHat]

I have one 38 S&W Special in the three main frame sizes, a Model 36-1, a few M&P’s, and a Model 1950 Heavy Duty built in 1950.

And a few others,

Kevin

AS to S&W 38 spl's, I've got more than I care to admit, including several that I've never even shot. I'm not anywhere near to being in Mr.Smithnut's league as far as a comprehensive collection, but I do have a pretty wide selection to choose from. The one that mostly makes it to the range with me is an old 5-screw K38 Target Masterpiece. However, the one that would be the last 38 spl to ever get sold (by me) would be a j-frame M60-4. Only holds 5 rounds; pedestrian Uncle Mike's grips; 3" BBL, stainless; w/target sights. That gun shoots like a rifle, it's easily concealed, and can do everything I would need a 38 spl to do. -S2
