I blame you guys. In the last two weeks, I have bought two new snubbies. When the wife got upset, I told her it was the Forum's fault.
First, I found a 642 from the Performance Center that I just had to have. The hang tag said it had trigger work, and when I compared it to a standard 642, it was smoother. It was only about $70 more, so I bought it.
Today, I went to a gun show for the first time in a few years. As has become normal for shows, I didn't see any guns that I really liked that weren't priced as if they had gold plated chambers. I did pick up a Spyderco knife and some 45 Auto Rim though.
After leaving, I stopped at a gun store that is normally a bit out of my way looking for some Crimson Trace grips. Making my way to the back of the store, I passed the Smith display cases and stopped to look. Sitting on the shelf was a 2" Model 64-2 that needed a little TLC. The mechanics were good though. It locked up tight and didn't have any push off. The trigger is as smooth as any I've seen. It was priced at $350, and after seeing the inflated gun show prices, I jumped on it.
Here they are together... my two new snubbies!
