Default 27-2 18-3

Well I put some target grips on the 27-2, these have been refinished by yours truly so nothing great but they will do. The 18-4 I bought about a month or so ago at a gun show, it had been re-blued and had the wrong hammer (K22 from a old 5 screw), had combat grips on it they were cool but the re-blue was kind of a sloppy job. I have since put the grips on a different gun. The original smith when prepping the gun for re-blue buffed the side plate pretty hard and the S&W was a bit washed out. So I found another side plate on eBay and went to work on removing the old blue on the entire gun. I have a close friend who is a fantastic gunsmith and I get to watch him work so I kinda knew how to remove the old blueing and get the gun prepped correctly so the new blueing would look as good as we could get it. I change out the hammer and found some magna grips. I think it turned out pretty good.
