I have this snubby (36 no dash) but I'm "scared" to carry it !:)

More Pictures Sorry for the photo quality!

I assure you---I am neither! Thanks for your concern.

I have a Jink's letter that indicates at least 10 Gold Plated Model 36s were shipped to Rex in Feb 1972.

I do not have the original grips---but I agree with you. It has been shot but not much--I have "A" box--not original--but period correct. Has original Model 36 paperwork. Don't know where to carry it unless it was WELL concealed! Not sure I can stand the conversations--:) Will try to post...

In another thread, I posted this picture. I now have the LETTER. Mr. Jinks calls it a "Special Variation"--sent for plating before shipment. Anybody seen anything like this before? I bought just because it was different.

It is gold---I thought it was strange too!

ANY IDEAS ON THIS ONE??? Found this in a local gun shop. Allegedly refinished by S& W. Already invested in the letter. Waiting on it! Just really strange looking---had to have it.

SER #--32589 I bought this as a shooter rather than a collector. I believe it to be a heavily modified .455 HE Model II. It is now .45 LC--work was expertly done and the action is SLICK. I have asked for the letter just for information.
