Under the grip I find the 5 digit number of 89175?? nothing like the serial number, and nothing like the product codes in my smith book?

ok I loosened up this set screw on the rear sight,,, now how much force would be required to slide this puppy? If I can adjust these, they would be fine.

pictures Some pictures of the 2 dots, seems to be a letter 1 stamped into frame, and it has a N at end of mag well.

From what I can tell it was carried From what I can tell it was carried by a right handed LE by the wear on it. I have found some new marks on it. I will post some pics. tyring to figure out how to remove grips and get it apart.

I hand load And in my carry guns (automatcis), Winchester, Remington Hollow points. Its easy and safe, been used for years. I reload with Winchester, Remington, Hornady, and Zero bullets. There are some reloads in my revolvers, that are all over the house, but they are all straight wall...

Took my new toy to the range today, (1026) and I noticed its shooting to the left.. So I got serious with locating where it was shooting and its 2 inches to the left at 10 yards. This is with 2 different kinds and brands of ammo, 180gr and 200gr.. I will say the 180gr seemed better, and the...

I hope this works. I get no options other than URL, unless I click the advanced option tab then I can look my pictures up. :)

I bought a 1026 yesterday, cause I always wanted a 10mm, and don't like glocks. So I snapped it up, shot very little. But kinda weird it looks like it was a duty gun. You know the holster wear and all. This gun has a bobbed hammer, and I reload and shoot a lot, it having the 5 inch barrel was...

Yes I think this gun was originally A nickle gun, it has a nickle cylinder And nickle trigger and hammer, but has A gold plated frame. Has been shot and handled A good bit and has chipped wood grips on it. Thanks

Serial number on butt does match rear of cylinder, the writing or stamping on the barrel is on the top not the sides, I did not even look for serial on barrel. no that is not where the gun is located. My info says the square butt is rare, me finding rare is hard to believe.

older 4 inch barrel smith and Wesson, no model number I believe it has been refinished, has 8187 in side yoke and serial number of 2960XX. No a bad price on it, some of it is nickel and some of it is gold plated. grips are ruff and gun has been carried a lot, and shot a lot. My issue is I don't...
