Riposte 1 and SSGRock. Just when you think you know your Smiths, it's not enough. Glad to find out that parts would be a "process". Thinking about purchasing off ebay a 4" pencil barrel complete from a 10-7 and a cylinder/ crane set up from a 10-6 to obtain a center pin and ejector. Parts are...

Have a Model 10-5 2" and I want to swap and put a 4" pencil barrel on it. I know I will need to purchase ejector rod and related equipment. Just wondering if I have to find a 10-5 pencil barrel or can I use other Model 10 pencil barrels? Gun is a square butt and would like to make it a 4". I've...

Thanks to the OP for his reloading and chrono work. Gives me approximate velocities for given loads, that I will use. Starting lower powder charge and working up. Have a 60-15 and an old 66=0 4" and those 38-44 loads like promising,

Outpost knows what he is talking about. Worked in gun industry for years.

Blast and recoil from a 2" 357 is more than I can effectively use at this point. 3" is negotiable, I have a 60-15 that has 357 158 JHP Blazer ammo and it is managable and accurate. My EDC is a Kimber K6xs loaded with Federal Punch 120grain doing 920 from a 2 inch barrel. I'm a big fan of 2" 6...

I purchased a new hot off the press 640 Pro in 2014 when they first came out. Lamps went dead two years ago. Called S&W CS gave them the gun's serial # and they told me my weapon had Trijicons. Removed sights sent to Trijicon and had them relamped and they are now doing service on the 640 Pro...

Rod Herrett uses great exhibition grade walnut!

Thank you Rock 185; great write up. Answers many questions!

Some commercial casters will throw a 432 bullet for you. Worth a call.

Want to tell you about High Desert Cartridge Co. out of Oregon. Owner is a former cop and loads some cool 38 wadcutter loads and a 357 load meant for two legged varmints. The 357 load is a 158gr Hornady XTP JHP and it is doing 925 out of a 2" barrel. Very accurate, controllable, low flash and...

Nicely finished, very accurate with a smooth 8lb DA trigger.

I have an EZ9 and it is a good shooter, but wish I had the safety equipped one.

Have the K6xs best snubby I've ever owned. Several years ago I decided I would live the snubby lifestyle but which one.( As a retired cop I carried Js and Colt LW Cobras during my career as an LEO.) I purchased a 2" Kimber K6, A Smith 640 Pro and a new Colt Cobra 38. Shot, and carried all...

Pardon my ignorance but what is a Model 11. Never heard of such a creature?
