My biggest issue with the bill is allowing 18 year old kids to CC. If kids at 18 were ever mature enough at this age to carry - or vote for that matter, they certainly are not today.

Seems like I recall the 547s were made for a French Police contract that they defaulted on?

I guess not surprising to find others in this boat but found this thread interesting because I have been wrestling with the same dilemma lately. Between aging out and losing interest I need to do something with my S&W collection before my family gets stuck doing it. Moving them one at a time...

Love your collection of these first year 57s. I have S236,924 a 6” blue gun that lettered being shipped April 20, 1964 to Henkel & Joyce Hardware Co. in Lincoln NE. The numbers were all over the place for these early guns.

They made some 686s years back that had a black, matte finish. As I recall they were actual 686 SS guns too, not a 586.

I have added some Instruction Pamphlets that I have for sale to this thread. Personally I don't like it when these for sale threads get over complicated by endless additions so I am not going to attempt to add the list. PM me if you want the list or have a particular need. All but one are BP...

2018 bump. These will begin to migrate to auction this week sometime.

Been a week, we'll try a bump into the new year..

Daily bump. Info sent...

Daily bump. I am open to offers on some boxes, but please be realistic.

Daily bump. Box #6 is SPF.

I have a list of some 20+ S&W boxes for sale. Most are from the 1940s - 1960s with some from the 1970s. Prices on the list do not include shipping. I can bundle multiples to save on shipping but won't know the cost until I look into it. I have pictures available for all boxes that I can send by...

Prayers going out ole buddy! Hope everything turns out well.

This has always been my favorite a 625-4 - although it was never a real cataloged item. It was an over run of the Springfield Armory Commemorative gun made on the Mountain gun platform - but before they came out with the newer version with the weird front sight. Thin tapered barrel.

Not to hijack the thread but speaking of SVs, has anyone ever come across one with a number higher than SV813132?
