    I haven’t ever been to that range, but it sounds like I’m going to have to make a trip up there soon. Thank you for letting me know about it! Seems the trash issue is prevalent pretty much everywhere these days. Common courtesy isn’t so common for some folks I guess. When I pay a visit, I’ll...

    What was your first Smith and Wesson??

    I recently purchased my first Smith and Wesson on a whim. I bought it blindly, but learned from this forum that I acquired a .38 Military & Police, 4th change, most likely from 1917. The gun has been fitted with more modern magna stocks from the '60s, and it has been reblued. I know there are...

    ID Inquiry for .38 Special with No Model Number

    Thank you for your reply! That makes complete sense with such a saturated market, but I think I’ll hold onto this gun anyway. Knowing that it has been around for over a century holds more personal value to me than some small profit margin. It’s my first S&W revolver, and now I have a feeling it...

    ID Inquiry for .38 Special with No Model Number

    Thank you for the warm welcome and quick response. I figured it was an older one, but I didn't expect it to be that early. Is there anything I should do other than ordinary care to preserve its quality? Does the rebluing significantly decrease its value? Thank you again for all your help!
