    Should I get a M14?

    LOL...my dad was a Marine in the early 60's and hated that weapon. He used to go on and on about what a cheap *** it was. He is the only person I ever heard talk **** about the M14....but then again that is not unusual for my dad. LOL.

    Well Poop fell off the wagon again M29-2

    LOL.... I saw that one too. I was really tempted but I have purchased 4 Smiths in the last three weeks. Thank you for making that temptation go away and congrats on a great score.

    Should I get a M14?

    OK, I am addicted to S&W Revolvers...I like older P&R (but will buy non P&R vintage Smiths) and I have never had a M14. My collection doesn't have any particular theme and my local shop has a collection of older M14's that I think they may deal on. I like to think that I buy practical carry...

    New to me M19-3 2.5"

    Thanks for the heads up. Never seen or felt the newer grips. I would like a used set, but I am just not one to spend big bucks on older used grips.

    New to me M19-3 2.5"

    I just picked up my nice shooter quality M19-3 2.5" snubby from my local shop. It came with nasty Pachmayrs which were quickly replaced with a set of S&W combats I got from fellow forum member Peak53 (thanks Ed!). It came with the box, paperwork and tool and I got it for $500. It will be a...

    S&W Model 10-6: Another Gun Age/Value Question:

    I was actually wondering if maybe it was a misprint in the book. I was thinking that maybe they meant the 2D's serials were 2D80001 to 3D99999 in 1978 instead of 2D99999. That would make more sense being as the 4D00001 started 1979. But that is probably me just thinking too hard. I am sure...

    S&W Model 10-6: Another Gun Age/Value Question:

    I also have a nickel 4" M10-6. Mine is in really good shape but I am confused about the Serial number and what the SCSW says as far as the date. My serial number is 3D13XXX. The book says that 10-7's started in 1977 so I would think my 10-6 would be earlier than that. BUT..the bok also says...

    Took my new acquisitions to the range today

    Thanks guys, I do not mind a stiffer trigger on a carry gun to be honest. I got the 60 just because it is a little sister to my favorite Smith... the M65.

    Took my new acquisitions to the range today

    Over the past three weeks I have scored a M13-2, M19-5 and a M60-1. I took them all to the range today along with my wife and her 9mm. Absolutely loved shooting the 2 K Frames. Both are great shooters and have sweet triggers. The little 60 is a good shooter but has a rather stiff trigger...

    What grips for my 19-3 2.5 inch

    I have a 19-5 with a 2.5 inch bbl and have a 19-3 2.5inch on layaway at my local shop. I got a good deal on it because it has those ugly arse Pachmayr grips on it. That is a no go for me. I am gonna buy some replacement grips from the S&W store. I am either gonna get the stock magnas or a...

    grip for model 686 revolver

    I have searched the classifieds and ebay and find that you can get anything you need (within reason) at the S&W online store and for MUCH more reasonable prices.
