After selling the 1950 pre 21 to a member. I have a couple of questions. Please take into consideration, I am handgun ignorant. I found and purchased a model 624 6.5 inch barrel 44special at a local pawn shop for $600.00. I have around 800 rounds of 44 special ammo, a lot of brass with dies, and...

Fool I do not remember who said this: It is better too keep quite, and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth, and remove all doubt. No doubt about Jim the fool.

Sold pending funds. Model 1950 Pre 21 44 Special 5 inch barrel. My Father bought this firearm new in 195? from a local hardware. On the butt the serial starts with C instead of S. The shroud has an S before the number. So it is apparently a factory error. I do not remember him carrying it or...

Amen Now that is looking on the bright side. AMEN brother

You guys have seen the C95XXX serial numbered 1950 Military 5 inch of mine. Here are a couple of pictures of the Grips. What is the SO about or was that something someone else put on it. The SO sure isn't my Fathers initials. There is something written on the other Grip but it is unreadable. I...

pre 10 Dad's carry gun after it was rebuilt by S&W

One in the box 67-0 My Father bought this one 1977 for $159.00. I don't know if he ever fired it.

After finding out about the 1950 in 98% condition, I was informed I'd be out of my mind to fire it. I rarely fire a handgun anyway. Now, .22 rifles is another story.

80 and still shooting is dang fine to me, Sir. Best regards.

The assault weapon ban was dropped due to the inability to get even 40 votes of the needed 60 votes. Let's not relax, because the hoplophobes will not quit.

Greetings to all. 64 years young. Rarely fire a handgun. I still shoot small bore matches locally. Just joined to get some information of what I now know is a 44 hand ejector model 1950 military, pre 21. Thanks to all the helpful guys and the warm welcome I received.

Friendly bunch, Thanks Nice to hit a forum that the people are as friendly and helpful as you guys. Go on some, and you feel like a **** in the punch bowl. I am attaching pictures of Dads 67, that I never knew him to fire. It is a 67 with no dash that he bought from the same Hardware as the...

How about a little more schooling here. After a bunch of measuring at the local asylum (Old Gun Shop). The local family started it in 1957. The barrel on this gun is 5 1/2 inches from the front of the cylinder to the end of the barrel. There was a fine argument about how to measure a barrel. I...

Heck fire, a first for me. Cannot believe I succeeded doing that.

OK, I will try I am attaching the pictures. hope this works. I am computer illiterate.

Darned if I know. The Serial number in the shroud is an S 95XXX. 95XXX on the cylinder. On the butt it is C95XXX. On the back side of the Wood grip is S95XXX S.O. On the other grip there is the same S O. What is the S O all about. Why is the Butt serial starting with "C". There is something...

Greetings, new guy. 64 years young. I shoot handguns rarely. 22 small bore matches 99 percent of the time. In going through my Fathers belongings I found 3 S&W revolvers which I have been doing some research as best I can. The one I have had the most difficulty with is a fixed sight 44 Spl, Hand...
