    From what I know (not much) the 19-6 and19-7 have the round butt, previous models don't. Cosmetics not important, but no rust or pitting. Mechanically sound, and good bore and chamber condition very important. This will be a house gun. I'm in WA state, about 35 miles north of Seattle.

    Muzzle Velocity and Recoil

    Thanks for the answers. So am I correct in saying that if the powder loads were such that both bullets exited with the same muzzle energy, the recoil impulses would be identical?

    Muzzle Velocity and Recoil

    I've been trying to figure this out and it's making me crazy. 1. Say you have two different cartridges, same caliber. 2. The bullet weights differ by a significant amount (25 grains?). 3. Powder loads are such that both cartridges exit the same revolver at the same muzzle velocity. My...

    I have had some in a polyethylene bottle for over a year, no problem that I can see.

    THE CORRECT PROCEDURE

    One thing to add to the above comprehensive good advice. If you speak to S&W Customer Service, ask specifically about having them email you a prepaid shipping label. If they go for that, the label will be for FedEx. You must ship it from a FedEx "Regional Center", not a franchised office like...

    I'm all for teachers carrying concealed in schools as guardians. IF they are trained beyond the CCW requirements. I.e. in gun handling, shoot/don't shoot, hostage situations, and specific protective protocols for their class rooms. I've had a Florida CCW and currently hold a Washington CCW. In...

    Pre-Lim says it "removes oxidation". Blueing is oxidation so would it have any bad effect on blued guns?

    3953 Night Sights Maker?

    S&W says could be either Meprolight or Trijicon...cold comfort. Meanwhile the one I had my eye on was sold. So it goes.

    3953 Night Sights Maker?

    Yes M is wider and bigger. I fear you're right about Meprolight. I'll give S&W a call, anyway. Maybe they can tell something based on the S/N.

    3953 Night Sights Maker?

    Came on a nice example of a 3953 today at a pawn shop. I'm liking it. Asking price is a little lower than what I've seen on line. The night sight lamps are dead, so I'm thinking that if I go for it, I'd want to replace the lamps only, if possible. The fixed rear sight is marked MH3 on the...

    screw-driver set for S&W Revolvers

    If you already have a handle, Brownell's also sell a set of just four bits for S&W Stock # 080-087-002WB. Agreed, their drivers are the best I've used.
