    I have a picture of it but I'm not comfortable putting it on line without his consent.

    Triple lock opinion

    Gentlemen, A near local gun shop has a TL for sale. It's been in his case for a year now. Condition looks original finish at about 60%. No pitting, bore is shiny. It has a lot of honest wear but no visible abuse. Numbers match, and it retains the yoke spring. Grips are pre war magna style so...

    I think this shipped in late 55. It wouldn't be stretch for an owner to wait just a bit to replace them in 56. In any case either one isn't the ones shipped.

    Pretty Outdoorsman of 1950

    I've never shot this one, too pretty to increase the cylinder ring on it. I do shoot my blue worn pre war HD and OD though!

    Pretty Outdoorsman of 1950

    I picked this beauty up from an auction a few years ago. It was cataloged as an pre M27. It flew under the radar. Serial # 146xxx puts it probably late 1955. The last of the 5 screws. Unnumbered target grips but period correct upgrade. Not reamed to .357. I love these beautiful N frames

    For those age 60 or under (Gen X or later generations…)

    I'm a month away from 60. I have a pre war HD, McGivern OD (waiting for the letter to confirm!) and 1917. I'd have to say I'm interested in any nice S&W wheel gun with a pinned barrel.

    Is this a grail Outdoorsman?

    I'm curious, what tell tale clue are you looking for?

    Is this a grail Outdoorsman?

    There is an "S" stamped on the left grip frame near the grip anchor pin. On the right there is a "B" stamped near the tie of the grip frame. I've used a loupe and did not find any other markings. I can't see anything that would suggest that this isn't factory original, other than the grips. The...

    Is this a grail Outdoorsman?

    Sorry for the delay Gentlemen. Serial numbers match, frame, barrel and cylinder. There is a small "B" within the ejector rod recess on the barrel. If I remember right, there's a "B" on one side of the grip frame, and a "E" on the other. Both hidden by the replacement grips. Both front and back...

    Is this a grail Outdoorsman?

    Hello, I'm new in joining the forum but not reading it. Last year I was the winning bid on this pre war Outdooorsman. It was listed as an HD. I poured over the listed photos, and I was convinced that it was obviously not an HD but a McGivern Outdoorsman. Being mislabeled it didn't receive much...
