I know you are looking for a .357, but I'm very happy with this 3 inch 642. My favorite J frame.

By all means....factory wood! Not a Model 63 but a nickle Model 34. They will fit both a square butt or a round butt.

Here is the site. The rough texture is commonly referred to a "bark". http://www.grashornsgunworks.com/

UUmmmm...I could smell the BBQ sauce even before I opened this post!

OK, we all know that there is a shortage, but why? I remember how the government pays farmers not to farm certain tracks of land every year...democrats take charge and all of a sudden ammo dries up...hmmmm. No gun control, just no ammo. Also, ever think about one of the democratic super rich...

I picked this one up...new old stock...for $400 about 2 years ago. Thought that was a little high then, but I'm good with the decision now. Norton 750 is right, if you find one, make sure the grips are good. Only the dash 4's frame is the same width as the K frames. The earlier versions had a...

There are so many craftsmen out there that it's almost impossible to put a price on your question. Depends on the skill of the engraver, what type of coverage you want to have, etc. I've been told that stainless is much harder to engrave than carbon steel. I suggest you do a search of engraved...

Not only a BBQ gun... but tux is required! Ivory looks better with the bowtie. Feel free to spend whatever you want...you get what you pay for!

Where are all of you getting holsters for the 3 inch J Frames? Let's toss some 3 inch holster photos on here while we're at it!

Shawn is right. I had well over 50,000 rounds of +P+ through my 5904, not to mention thousands of standard velocity reloads. Only replaced the extractor after all those rounds. 3rd Generations are hard to beat. Been there...done it.

They can also put it on stainless steel and aluminum. My Kimber CDP is done in full with NP3. Finish is about 8 years old and looks as good today as it was when it was done. You will not regret NP3!

They are a little tough to find. This is my 642 and, although I'm sure they made many others, this is the only one I've ever seen. As you can see, the frame is not the "frosted" finish, but a semi-polished factory finish...right out of the box.

The marketing gurus lost me at "Yes, it has the lock. Will never own one. Soon as they figure that out, they'll get more business back from alot of shooters.

Ditto on the 642...just a little longer tube!
