    S&W Model 13-3

    Welcome to the Forum. Those are assembly numbers that have no meaning after it was put together. The only number that matters is the serial number on the bottom of the butt. Jim

    Need help to identify this gun

    The Catalog says it was born in 1969. I'm not an expert on pricing, but if it was mine I wouldn't take less than $500 for it. Jim

    WHICH IS MORE EFFECTIVE FOR CARRY,25ACP OR 22 CALIBER

    I think Col. Cooper summed it up best about the .25 ACP. He said if you have one, don't carry it. If you carry it, don't load it. If you load it, don't shoot anybody with it. If you do, you may hit them, and that may cause them to get very angry.:eek: Or something to that effect.:cool: Jim

    This squirrel adopted me.

    When I was a kid my Grandparents had a squirrel in town that was tame. We named him Alex. He would take peanuts out of your hand. I still have a picture of me feeding him one. I was sitting on the ground with my knee bent. He climbed up my leg and took a peanut.:D He would jump up on the screen...

    How many different models of the model 65-2 are there?

    That 3" one is a mighty desirable revolver. Especially a pinned and recessed one. I have a 3" M13-2 that is a great carry gun. Always wanted a 3" M65. If you check prices they are sky high. Show a pic if you can. Jim

    Welcome to the Forum. That number dates to 1980 according to the Catalog. The M65, and it's carbon steel twin, the M13 were only made with 3" and 4" barrels. Jim

    New Iowa gun law: Guess I was a criminal

    The Iowa Legislature just passed a new gun law. Among other things it legalizes suppressors. It passed unanimously. I don't have any suppressors, but that's kinda cool.:cool: The law that surprised me is it is now legal for parents to teach their young children to shoot a handgun under their...

    Anybody tried the 7-Up "10" products?

    Regular "pop" as we call it here in Iowa is too sweet for me, although I love A&W Root Beer. I have heard all the stories about the sweeteners in diet pop being bad for you. I don't care, I just like the taste, and I can do without the 150 calories per can. Lots of stuff I do is bad for me. I am...

    Anybody tried the 7-Up "10" products?

    I really like diet pop. I like the fact it has no calories, but I actually prefer the taste. Missus Fan's brothers both think it will kill me dead.:eek: One of them gravely told me ants won't eat it. Gee, I always want to know if something I drink is tasty to ants.:rolleyes: He also said it will...

    The story of the Highway Patrolman revolver...

    Very interesting, John, thanks for sharing. I have two M28-2s. One an S serial number and the other an N. Both 4". The N one was the carry gun of a small town Iowa Police Chief. It has a serrated rear sight leaf. I know that wasn't standard. Could it have been factory installed? Jim
