Nice one S&W Fan, and thanks for confirming the stock advice and nice picture of your grandson; I presume. Mine is only 3 at the moment but this would great a 'learners permit' for him when he's ready. Mine looks identical to yours...with the box and goodies. Sure glad you didn't sell it for...

Nice pair you got there. Start learning with the 63 and move up to the 66. I can see where the 63's are valuable in that regard.

I think it will be great for new shooters too! Ya, that was a smart buy back then.

Thanks VaTom, I'll remember that about square butt stocks if I think they're too small. LIke the yard sale holster. Personally, I've only seen a few 63 no dashes at gun shows and they were too over priced for me!

Thanks for the birthdate range JP@AK. If it's 1979 that would be cool since that's the year I graduated HS.

Went into my LGS yesterday and they had just got in a really nice Model 63 Kit Gun pinned barrel with original stocks, matching blue box(with the metal corners) with tools and all the paperwork; even the blank registration card. It is a very clean one and looks like it had been shot very little...

Congrats tesoro! I think you'll like it. I picked up a 617 no dash 4" 6-shot last year when it showed up at my LGS, it is a great shooter! I didn't have one but have a 686 and this 617 feels just like it's big brother.

I'll second the Tippman. I have a Micro Bugout Elite pistol model with a folding brace. It is a great compact little .22 that very closely resembles the AR or M4. All the controls are great and the magazines feel just like regular 30-round AR mags. This makes for a great training weapon that's...

Thanks jeffrefrig, I'll kep an eye out for the Rugers you have. I've learned that it's safest to stay mostly S&W and Ruger; especially if you ever need to sell one.

Thanks mag318, I'll be on the lookout now for some Rugers to compliment my 632; it's always great to have several in a common caliber. What Ruger models do you suggest in a 4" or less? I really like my RHs, BHs and need to find a couple more Security Sixes.

Thanks Jeff for your expereince with your 632s. Yours looks in great condition! I was glad to get it since I've never seen one show up at a LGS or gun show before. The Crimson Trace laser stocks run around $180-$200 used so I figured that the $750 OTD price was pretty good even without the box...

Later today I will be taking home a 2009 632-1 3" Stainless Carry Comp .327 magnum with Crimson Trace laser stocks that showed up last week at my LGS. I didn't know anyting about this model until they told me about it. It has the Power Port in barrel in front of the front sight. I got the...

You came across a great deal at the right time; especially a -3 with the box as well! Just like bald1 said: That’s a $1000 gun around here. With very little wiggle room. Around here that's the same thing. I found a 19-6 2.5" two years ago without the box at $900. So ya, you got a great deal!

Congrats on your Chiefs Special! Careful, yes, that you visit your LGS more often to see what else you can add. Get the bug? Sorry, you're bitten already and there is no known cure. Expensive? Maybe, but depends on how YOU value each and every one that pops up! See? Now that wasn't so painful...

Getting your family shooting on a 63 first is a great idea. Comparatively, the 617 is heavier than the 63. I can make that comparison firsthand since I just got a 63 a month ago but haven't had nice enough weather to shoot it. Those little 63 'kit guns' are very comfortable! Once they've...

I got my 617 no dash 4" almost a year ago. It is an awesome shooter. Up until that time I never saw a 617 in ANY length or capacity show up at my LGS. When I did see it, I scooped it up quickly. It's also a great compliment to its big brother the 686. This one is a keeper for sure! Although...

Thanks H Richard and Wiregrassguy!

Yes CounrtyCuz you're right on the round count for each. Here's my experience ACORN. I've owned a Governor for 13 years and it's a great pistol for anything out in the back woods or fields. It even has a night sight. I ordered a OWB leather holster with 6 loops sown on the outside for extra...

Thanks Wiregrassguy. Here's the only picture I took, with some background covered up.

I came across a S&W Regulation Police 4" .38 S&W that I'd consider decent shooter grade. It has the original diamond stocks, lots of scratches like it was thrown in a tool box, but was very mechanically sound. It needs a good cleaning. It also came with 100 rounds of ammo. The serial number is...
