Thank You for all the great information !! I started shopping around on the net for CT grip lasers and noticed that some of the S&W's can be purchased with the LM. I also appreciate the refurb information and will keep an eye out for that. Thank You again for the excellent information as...

I'm going to get a laser light for my 442. I've never used a laser light for any of my handguns but I'd like to get one for my 442. I want to get a good quality and dependable laser. I'm trying to decide between a grip or mount style. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Crimson...

I just purchased one last month. I'm not sure whether it's an early version or not but I've only had it to the range two times. I've gone through 1 box (50 RNDs) of Blazers 240 grain and have not had any issues at all. The cylinder does get a lot of muzzle blast on it. Prior to my second trip I...

Not bad at all for a 44 mag. It's my 1st 44 and I was expecting a lot more recoil.

I was shooting off hand and I did start at 25 yards with the 69 this time out. This is the 2nd time I've had it to the range. I also was shooting my S&W 442 and Glock 23 along with a few long guns so it very well could have been me. I had targets setup at 7 yards, 25 yards and 50 yards. The 69...

25 yard accuracy?? I got to the range this past Sunday and moved a target out to 25 yards for the 69. The accuracy wasn't what I was expecting. Using Blazer JHP 240 grain I went through a box of 50. Only had 20 to 25 rounds within a 6 inch target. I was getting excellent accuracy at 15 yards...

LOL ! Sorry everyone but I loaded the wrong pic from S&W's website. In my original post I did state that this wasn't a pic of my 69. I hadn't noticed that it was a 3" barrel as opposed to mine being a 4". I've been having issues with Photobucket lately so that's the reason I cut and pasted a pic...

Collector or Accumulator In my opinion a collector of anything is when someone gets through the OBSESSION phase and you are still interested in gathering information, purchasing and obtaining a product. The product (again IMHO) doesn't have to have collector value (as of yet) but it's something...

Thanks for the info!! I'm slowly becoming more familiar with revolvers thanks to all the information from the forum members. The numbers are some type of assembly number and are different from the SN. I thought the number in the yoke area below the SN and model number may be the production...

A couple more questions from a revolver newbie please On the right side of the M69 starting at the top of the right side of the frame just in front of the top of the hammer is a ridge that runs down the back side and under the cylinder just to the front of the cylinder removal screw and then...

Hoppes #9 Synthetic ? I've tried a lot of different solvents but my normal are Hoppes #9 and I use Butches Bore shine to clean my barrels. Both are excellent cleaners !! I picked up a bottle a few months ago of Hoppes #9 SYNTHETIC. It's not as strong as Hoppes #9 and states it's made for more...

I was able to get to the range for an hour today. Pretty good accuracy at 15 yards. The recoil wasn't bad for 240 grain JHP. The grips weren't too bad either but I'm going to look at some of your suggestions.

You are correct. Thank You for the link !!!

Blazer 44 mag steel case OK Thanks for the info on the grips ! The grips on it feel good and fit my hand very well. I'll run a few RNDs through it and see how that goes. I was at one of my favorite independent outdoor sports and supply shops today and they had Blazer 44 mag 240 grain JHP on...
