My favorite carry guns, all of which I own (or have owned) listed in order, with most liked gun first: 1. S&W 632UC .32 H&R Mag 2. SIG P238 .380 3. Ruger LCR .327 Fed Mag (loaded with .32 H&R and NOT .327 Fed Mag) 4.Glock 42 .380 5. Sig P365XL 9mm 6. S&W 940 9mm 7. Glock 19 9mm 8. S&W 686+ .357...

If you have two in your safe, then you are guilty of two felonies, assuming neither is registered with the ATF. You may wish to video yourself destroying them before you get a knock on your door.

What years was the Lear Siegler era?

I have often heard that S&W revolver quality decreased when S&W was owned by Bangor Punta. Have also heard that when MIM parts came out, quality declined since you can't gunsmith those parts like solid steel parts. My question is simply this: for what years were the S&W revolvers generally of...
