Show n tell s&w nickel
I took out my s&w m 27-2 in the world famous nickel finish for a show n tell for some of the family. Even my son who isn’t crazy about guns chimed in. Which is great. Everyone wants there ccw permit. That’s awesome everyone wants to go shooting now. This tells me the additions to my family are gun lovers. I truely blessed. Nothing like nickel to get there attention. I only showed them one m27-2. Guns rock. I’m converting them one person at a time.

Mine is not original to the gun I am sure and not a high dollar S&W with a box but someone did a nice job putting a nickel finish on it before I found it at a pawn shop.

Here's a few but sorry there are a couple of semi-autos in the pic group. I know this is a Revolver Thread. Hope y'all don't mind too much.

Not the best picture, three of my favorites with bigmtnmans Elk Horn grips.Always partial towards 27`s but the 3 inch 66 really carries and points the best.

Every thread needs J-frames!
Here is a 4-screw .38 Chiefs Special given (shipped) to Mr. H.O. Austin, sales manager, Smith & Wesson, on August 30, 1954, "for demonstration purposes."
The second is a 3-screw Model 36, shipped December 1962.

And is a fine off-road gun.

Now that s&w guns are no longer available in nickel finish I wonder were the prices will go in the future?

One of my few shiny objects. Mod. 10-5
She wears Sambar stags rather well, and oddly, the wood stocks are one digit off from the S/N. This one has the smoothest action in my Smith collection and is a joy to carry and shoot.

I think that I only have three nickel guns in my collection, but by far and away, the most pristine is my 15-9 McGivern...

For some reason, your pics don't show on my page, I think my spyware/antivirus blocks that hosting site.
Thanks to you, I also have one of those, my only nickel gun. I maybe should have gone after the second one you told me about. I'm not normally a fan of nickel plated guns, I prefer blued and stainless.

My 442 no dash is my only Nickel gun.
Satin Nickel finish was offered for the first couple years.

Only have one. A Model 10-7 4" from 1979. Carried one just like this one in the 1970's - early 1980's as a uniform LEO. I like nickel. We had black leather gear and the nickel revolvers made for a sharp uniform. Wish I had a better picture. ( When I first started in 1976 I carried a 5" Nickel 10. We transitioned to all 4" around 1978.) Before and after Flitz / Ren Wax treatment.

My 38 no dash Airweight. Ren wax cleaned up the few mars. Sorry for the old Pachmayrs - they fit my hand better than any other I tried on it.

It took me several years to find the right nickel Model 10 like I carried back in the day. Original nickel finish revolvers will have an N stamped on the bottom of barrel on the flat. Back before stainless steel revolvers appeared on the scene, nickel was marketed as being a more durable finish than blue. You will see police department trade ins from 1980s in nickel. Flitz polish will make them shine.

I was wrong (post #31), I have four nickel guns in my collection, so what the heck, here are the other three...
That's it, honest.
Adios,
Pizza Bob
