Meh92, I purchased this little guy about one year ago. Paid $350 and haven't looked back since. The 60-4 is an absolutely delightful gun to shoot, and as much fun to fondle. Your friend did very well.

OK. I didn't see an model 19's, so here's my 3". And here's a 60-4:

Wow, I'm really loving the look of the 3" barrel. That 3" 686 would make a fine addition to my 3" M19 and 3" M60. Do I sense the beginning of a new addiction? Great pics, thanks for sharing, and welcome to the forum.

No, it's not a cut down 4 inch because it does have a round butt, and if you notice, the roll stamping is centered on the barrel. It could be a 2 1/2" changed out, but the blueing is quite consistent. I do plan on having this gun lettered one day when Roy begins accepting new requests. I do...

OK, thanks guys. These grips appear to fit quite well. But then, I have moved non-stock grips around on other revolvers and they always seem to fit rather well. S&W quality at work no doubt! The pictures hopefully will add a visual to my question. Thanks in advance for evryone's help...

I've recently purchased a M19-2 #K591xx round butt with diamond grips. These grips are not numbered. Does this mean the grips are not original to the gun?

Where's Barnie Fife when you need 'im. I'm sure he's got something to say 'bout this.

I love my 686SSR. I think the barrel shape is unique and always draws interest among shooters. I don't really think I shoot any better than other revolvers I own. The wood grips are gorgous but hurt my hand like hell when shooting so now it has Houge fingergroove rubbers. Is the extra price...

Here's mine, a 19-2 w/ 3" barrel.

No doubt, a life long collection. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for all the input. Interesting guns will always cause interest, and that's why I go for them. As for this one, serial number is K5916xx. If you notice, it's a round butt, so it didn't start out as a four inch. It could have been a 2 1/2", but would someone really go through the expense to...

I picked this beauty up Saturday at an auction in Michigan. I could'nt pass up the 3" barrel, although I'm not crazy about the patridge sight. Serial number places it as a 1964 build, but Supica's notes say the 3" didn't come out until 1965. Either way, I'm way happy I would appreciate...

Thanks for all the input. The story is this gun and several other S&W's are from an estate. Each gun is in perfect, unfired or minimal fired, collectable condition and the prices are reasonable. I will use your advice and ask the dealer to remove the grips for numbering. Others available are a...

Ok everyone, I need some advice. I have a chance to purchase a 1946 S prefex 5" transitional model. I have'nt seen the gun personally, but it is described as mint with hardly a turn line. No box. What questions do I need to have answered to determine if this gun is worth purchasing? What would...
