Do you or anyone have the story on the matte finish in the bottom left? Was that a refinish or some oddball?

100% shortened barrel. Finish is probably aftermarket, at least on the barrel. The Smith & Wesson is not in the right spot or size for the barrel length. Honestly, it looks like a FANTASTIC carry gun if you like .45 Colt. Keep it!!!

Handmade AKs and various handguns are out there... soft metals, etc. risky to say the least.

I think this is a fair assessment. A 6 shot snub is nice and they is really just north of modern 5 shot j frames.

Sorry to keep at it, but the checkering on the hammer spur is too coarse and the the screw sizes on the sight leaf are also wrong. ETA: And there should NOT be an S&W company mark on the left sideplate under the thumbpiece. See my Combat Magnum for comparison sake.

Welcome to the Forum. First: I do NOT think that is a real Smith & Wesson barrel. The caliber marking is on the RIGHT side of the barrel on S&W revolvers (looking at it from a shooting grip) and Smith & Wesson is on the LEFT side. I wonder if the whole gun is a knockoff? Certainly nothing...

Found one!

I love my bianchi

This, and mine is stoopid accurate. As good as my 6.5 mod27

Minotaur belt :)

Just ordered a Bianchi 5 BHL lined holster for my 28-2 4". A little late, but any experience with these?

Exactly this. Good call. Maybe I can work him down in price, but I need to look at it again. I think the front sight was re done too. Was that a Cogswell and Harrison mod also? ETA: Still a 5" I think... Measuring time.

Ran into a S&W Victory model with Proof marks, re-marked 38 S&W CTG barrel, a re-bored cylinder and a "Converted by (some company, can't recall) in London England. Looks to be a WW2 made S&W sent to England. Finish is about 80-85% and the gun seems mechanically fine. 1: Is it a shooter...

Wild! I like it! I would not have gone quite so light on the trigger for a combat gun, but otherwise, slick!

You ain't kidding. I may actually go to a gun show or two, to try and find someone who is not a GunBroker profiteer. I have not been to a show in YEARS, because of the herd.

Sorry for the awful delay. Pic in Original Post

My J carry is a 637, and the only holster I have for it is actually ankle. Not the best for quick situations, but it is so light I barely notice it and it is good for those "low intensity" areas. True pocket carry is hard for me, being a smallish guy. Pockets big enough to comfortable swallow...

I got a Bianchi Black Widow belt slide rig today for my round butt 2" model 10. Seems good so far...very pleased that the end of the barrel is only about a half inch below my belt. T shirts and other warm weather appropriate shirts cover it quite well". I am impressed. Pics will be...

I have done a few installs myself. I am pretty mechanically adept and have most of the right tools. Being that triggers themselves are getting to the $50-100 range, I decided to keep the labor money for myself.
