Are these grips "Checkered Walnut Service Stocks" (as per SCSW 5th) that would have been the factory original grips on a Model 681? Thanks in advance.

I recently saw a post that had pictures and descriptions of the Pre-29 leatherette cases and latches. I've been searching for it and can't find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have seen conflicting information on this topic. Which sight adjustment tool would have shipped with a 1957 shipped Pre-29? Thanks in advance.

I know that I am late with this but, better late than never. I purchased an NYSP Model 681 a while back from PatriotX. The best part was that, the one that I bought from him, was one serial number before the one that I carried on the job. Another knowledgeable and straight-up guy to buy from...

A few months ago, I saw a post by Topduarte titled "Thoughts on this NYSP 28-2" asking about A Model 28-2 that he was considering buying. I made a comment on his post that, if he decided to not purchase the gun, to please let me know because I have been looking for one. About a week ago, I...

I need a second (+) opinion. Do these grips look like Cokes?

I inherited a Weatherby Mark V .224 Magnum Varmintmaster from my father several years ago. It now has the self-destructing trigger issue that it is known for and I am looking for a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Would 1973 vintage magnas have a black or silver washer? After checking the SCSW 5th and looking on Gunbroker, I believe that they should have black washers. Thanks

WTB Model 27 manual (and possibly pamphlets) for 1973 vintage Model 27-2 with 3.5" barrel.

I found a nice 27-2 with a 3.5" barrel today for a lot cheaper than they are going for on Gunbroker. Serial number is N163XXX, so it should have been born around 1973-1974. I often see the older revolvers wearing newer grips. This previous owner went in the other direction.

Did Smith & Wesson ever produce more than one type of blue finish? There was a recent online sale of a very nice (1973 production) Model 29-2 in a presentation case. The ad read "high polished blue finish". This revolver brought, what I thought to be a substantial premium, and I am trying to...

I have a 1953 .22/32 Kit Gun that, according to SCSW 5th, was shipped sometime between 1955 and 1959. Would the factory box pictured be period correct for this revolver or is a "sunburst" box correct?

I recently purchased a Model 19 factory box that came with all the papers and tools. This aluminum cleaning tip was in the box as well. Did Smith & Wesson include these tips with any of their cleaning kits or is it just another tip that found it's way into the box? Thanks

I have a Model 57 with serial #607XXX which, according to SCSW, was born in 1979-1980. Which way should the gun be pointed when in the presentation case? I think it is riding the wave and I have seen conflicting information. Thanks!

My next "planned" purchase is going to be a Model 25. I keep flipping between purchasing the 45 ACP or the 45 Colt. Any advice from you owners/experts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Looking for a Model 27-2 with a 3.5", 4", 5", or possibly a 6" barrel.

Why do sellers on Gunbroker and other websites refuse to sell to people in certain states where the sale is perfectly LEGAL? I have had this happen to me and see it often on Gunbroker. In New York state, a pinned & recessed Smith & Wesson revolver is only required to be shipped to an FFL like in...

I have now had my first sets of "Cokes" in my hand. Why did S&W ever stop putting the on their revolvers? They are the best fit for my hand and have the nicest feel to them. And, I think, they look cool as hell too.

Was the original finish on a set of presentation grips a gloss finish, semi-gloss, or did S&W produce them in both finishes?
