The Model 67 is one of my all time favorite revolvers. The pencil barrel Model 64 is on my list of must haves!

AWESOME!
Both are beautiful and classic Must Have S&W Stainless revolvers.
Now you need a 4" Model 66 no dash and a 66 snub (either 3" or 2.5") and a Model 60, And maybe a 629 and a model 63.....

My 67 no dash with stainless rear sights is my favorite and my go-to gun.

What a gorgeous pair! I have a few 64's and a 65, but I really think a 67 has moved up onto the Short List, after seeing yours. Well done!

Lord, that Hi-Point is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. it almost looks like the designer was TRYING to make it ugly. Like they sat around a table and said "c'mon guys. It's not ugly enough yet. What else could we do to it?".

I like em both.
What did you use to polish them?
I have a twin of that model 67-1, but it could stand a little polishing.

Thanks for the compliments. Could have done without the addition of the Hi-Point picture though!

I use to use Mother's, but recently found some Meguiar's NXT All Metal Polish that I used on my 686 with amazing results. My 67 was worse than yours when I brought it home! I removed the grips and the cylinder/yoke from the frame before starting. I have an old t-shirt that I cut up for rags that I use to apply the polish. It is amazing how black the rags get!! I wipe off the excess with another clean rag, then buff with a microfiber towel. Helps to have a football game going on in the background!!

Looks like the Incredible Hulk excreted a handgun. YUK!!!
The 64 and 67 are great revolvers that should be in any S&W collectors arsenal. Nice to look at and even better to shoot.

MacA, thanks for posting those guns! You see 64's posted, but rarely 67's. I bought a 67 no dash earlier this year. Early example with rear stainless sights. Looks good, and is fun to shoot! I do need a 64 though, but just bought a 10-8. ( still working on that) Thanks, Bob

Bob...I was originally looking for a no dash 67 with the stainless sights, but couldn't pass up the deal on this -1. I will probably keep an eye out for a no dash version though. Hard to beat the refined look of the all stainless 67!!
No matter how many other types of handguns that I purchase, whether it be revolver, semi-auto, plastic, or steel, I keep coming back to the S&W K frame .38s as being the best shooters. They are the only platform that makes my TERRIBLE shooting skills look somewhat acceptable.
I am currently in the market for a nice 10-5 as a partner for my 64. I also have a K-38 (pre-15) that I have paired with the 67. Starting to see a theme to my collecting process!!

Very nice! The 64 and 67, that is, not the Hi-Point.

MacA, I have 10 handguns total. My K frames are my only revolvers. It seems that I shoot them best! After that I shoot my PX4 Storm .40S&W fairly well. After that it is kind of downhill. Would like to get a .44 Special someday. Bob

Good looking pair of guns. You can meet the bad guys at the door with one in each hand. Really cool.

I am probably getting ready to buy a 629 no dash tomorrow. I guess with .38s and .357s in the safe I might as well get a .44 Magnum to "protect" them!!
My name is Mark, and I am an S&W-aholic!!
Those of you that mentioned having a model 67 or 64, you need to post up some pictures here.
ldp4570: Thanks for the pics! I really like the 624!!

Just picked up this little 15-3 yesterday.
All the Smiths I`ve got. But here is another pic of the 67-1 wearing fake pearl.

Seems to be a pretty common condition around here.
At least it`s one that only ruins you bank account instead of your health.

An honest daily carry piece. Original stocks are squirreled away so they do not deteriorate.
