I stopped into the LGS today to pick up some ammo (and check the used counter for P&R Smiths) and saw a couple interesting 442s in the "New Gun" section.
#1 was a 442 with faux engraving on the cylinder and frame. I say faux because they looked like laser etching. Vaguely floral and the gun had a nicely colored set of finger groove wood grips with a fleur-de- lis motif. Mid-$600 IIRC. Looked like something my wife would like.
#2 was a pinto 442. Silver (SS?) cylinder, barrel, and old-school latch. I can't recall if the stocks were standard or not.

I thought they might be Talo versions but the price tags didn't have anything on them indicating they were anything but Smiths.
Anyone see anything like this lately?

Not wanting to derail your thread but what is LGS?
