a few pics of 2 of my favorites
Wanted to share two of my favorite revolvers.
A 19-5 2 1/2" that I just fitted with Ahrend Cocobolo tactical grips, and a 13-3 3 " that just got a new set of Spegal Cocoblo Boot Grips.
Life is good.

I'd say life is good with a pair of good-looking favorites like those!
Were there any mis-steps on yhe way to acquisition, or did you always know that these were the best?
Those are pretty good pics, too. TACC1

I think I developed a love for all things S+W a long time ago. Thanks for the kind words.

Ahrends on a 19 snub or 66 for that matter...a perfect match.

Great looking pair you have! I've been looking for a Model 19 unsuccessfully for a few years. The search never ends.

I see you snuck the wife and mom photo into the shot.
The spegels are fine, as are the heaters.
Actually, I think the Spegels should go on the 19, and the Ahrends
should go to the 13. Decisions,,decisions.
Yes! Life is Good.
Regards to you and yours.

Actually thats my niece (18 yrs old) and my mom (96 years old)
I did try the Spegels on the 19, but didnt like the feel in my hands. The 13 balances better for me with them. Like you said... Decisions decisions. LOL

Thanks for all the compliments. Much appreciated.
I just ordered a set of Ahrend tactical finger groove grips in Cocobolo wood for my 3 inch 65. I know I'm gonna like those.

Can't decide which look better, the grips or the guns...
