    .22 vs .22 magnum

    One of my first was a Winchester 9422M. Scoped it right off the bat. It is quite good on pigs and you can hear it hit. I'll take a .22Mag over a .22LR anyday.

    HE 3rd Model of 1926

    Sad news, after pulling the grips, I find that they are numbered about 4,400 above the gun.

    HE 3rd Model of 1926

    As it so happens, there is a letter with it from 2007. It was shipped in 1938 to W. A. L. Thompson Hardware Co., in Topeka, Kansas. It was shipped with a 5" barrel, blue finish, and checkered walnut grips. When I take more pictures of the gun, I will also try to get a good picture of the...

    HE 3rd Model of 1926

    Will work on getting the other side for you, but it doesn't look any different in my eyes. This one and the two Pre 27s were my prizes this year.

    Old 357 magnum

    I saw a marked Reg piece sell for $4,100 this week. But no box or paperwork. I believe that even though it had the number stamped on it, it would be considered a non-registered piece. And it had a couple of finish issues.

    Model of 1926 question

    Wolf & Klar Sorry if I mislead anyone, but I didn't mean to say that it isn't a Wolf & Klar piece. Mr. Jink's letter clearly states that fact. Someday I will get some pictures taken and learn how to post them.

    Model of 1926 question

    I know that this is an old thread, but my .44 Hand Ejector Third Model of 1926, Serial #555XX with fixed sights was shipped in February, 1938 to W. A. S. Thompson Hardware Co. in Topeka, Kansas according to Mr. Jinks. My research shows a W. A. L. Hardware in Topeka, Kansas.

    RENAISSANCE WAX

    I bought mine online a couple of years ago, it is good stuff. Use it on all of my pieces. Have hardly put a dent in the can.:) And then fingerprints don't show either.

    Hello, I bought my first S & W back in the early 70's, a Model 67. Also bought a Winchester 9422M back in that era. Those two served me well for many years, of course the empty wallet had something to do with it too. It wasn't until a few years ago that I really began collecting. I don't want...
