Possibly not the driver, the person taking the call could have mis-understood the sddress, or wrote it down wrong. Wasn't there any addressee information on or in the delivered bags?

Cut and Shoot, real town in Texas, East of Conroe, about 40 miles North of Houston. But Dennis knows that, probably,:)

The extractor is a fitted part that the factory will not sell to an individual because of this. Your gun is a prime example of why! Call S&W as I said, they probably will e-mail you a shipping label so you can send the gun to them by UPS. A good gunsmith could fix your extractor, but I have no...

bigggbbruce beat me to it. LAP designates Light Armor Piercing. Since they are steel core bullets many ranges prohibit them, as well as being a fire hazard from sparks when shooting away from ranges.

OP, Go back to post 9, Reloader Fred, first paragraph. He is exactly right! As long as you are shooting a cast or plated bullet it makes no difference what the lube or coating is, and very little difference if it is jacketed. Maker and exact bullet style makes very little difference either. Just...

Since a Model 28 was strictly a .357, and the gun is still a .357, why would anyone wonder if the barrel had been sleeved??? STCM, Why did you make this comment: "All this shooting at balloons and such is all hog wash... 2" revolvers were made for close up where you don't aim but instinct shoot...

Based on OPs description is it possible his revolver has had the extractor replaced with one from a .32 caliber K-frame. A photo of the rear of the cylinder with extractor installed will quickly settle this as the radius of the cuts in the extractor and charge holes will be obviously different...

Model 10-7 should be 1977 or later and have the standard (tapered) barrel. Specific dash numbers generally are produced for several years and may run currently with other dash numbers. This is why the SN is needed to give you a closer date. Value depends on finish and condition. It could vary...

If you really want to know, with the triple-alpha SNs if you call S&W at 800-331-0852 they can tell you the exact date of manufacture. Otherwise what you have been told above are estimates of shipping year only.

Jimmy, If you are really curious about 9mm cartridges check this Wikipedia post! :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9_mm_caliber You will see that virtually all "9mm" cartridges use bullets from .355" to .357", with a few notable outliers like 9mm Makarov.

How did we get from "locking bolt" to "bolt", to "cylinder stop"? And people criticize me for being a stickler for proper nomenclature!

Strike the frame harder, use a screwdriver handle. Sometimes you need to hit it 2-3 times!

The CCI is loaded ammunition LEO Brass shows out of stock 5 minutes ago! 7:28 PM 8-26-25

There isn't!

To get close to .38 Spl. velocities when using .357 brass you need to increase the .38 load by 10-11%, not just 1/10 grain, to account for the larger case. For example, with the basically standard, old load of 2.8 gr/Bullseye/148 WC this would be 3.0-3.1 gr. Bullseye. It makes no difference if...

The original factory load for the .357 Magnum was basically what you are shooting, but the charge was 15.3 Gr./2400! So 14.0 is well under maximum. Your 12 gr. load is just a bit more than the original .38-44 load for the .38-44 Heavy Duty revolver that pre-dated the original .357 Magnum My...

Those are P.C. aka Plain Clothes Magnas. They could have come from any K or L frame revolver. They usually were installed on fixed sight snub nose guns, so if your 681 is a 2 1/2", possibly.

The belt I am wearing will come up to any of three different holes depending on whether I have recently eaten, been to the bathroom, or just how hard I might pull it at the time. Holes are spaced 3/4".

Definitely not a M-39 magazine, and not even a S&W magazine with that style of floor plate and the magazine sidewalls bent in to retain the floor plate. The only thing even similar to a M-39 magazine is the X-follower.

The current bolt should work too.
