...and the package arrived EMPTY except for the packing slip. I emailed Urban carry, and the response was basically: "if you chose insurance, no problem. If not, report it to the police department." I don't remember if I paid for insurance, or not ( why would I not??). So, I'm looking for a...

Thanks for the replies, fellas. I found a "Lock Leather" from Urban Carry. Looks nice...

Does anyone know where I can source an OWB Holster for a S&W M&P .45 2.0 4.6in barrel with the DUAL THUMB SAFETIES? I've tried searching numerous holster manufacturers, but no luck, so far. Thanks! Allen

Thanks for doing this! Count me in... AT1984

You can bet I'll be checking that closely. I've read a BUNCH on these forums. Maximumbob54: I happen to have a..ahem...Taurus Model 85 with a compensated barrel. 2 in, but looks like a 3 in. Ported, too.

The fit and finish on the 642 I bought in November is excellent. As far as Stainless J Magnums...yep. Jacksonville, huh? I grew up in Oceanway.

Other than the things I was (maybe) nit-picking, the 60 was really nice. When I started looking for a Model 60, I immediately thought about changing the front sight, so yeah, I know it's not anything that can't be taken care of. I've looked at Trijicon and XS Big Dot sights. I have an older...

I was looking at a new Model 60-14 (not the Ladysmith model) at the PX. I noticed that the front sight had a VERY small gap underneath the sight (between the sight and barrel) I also noted that the sight was pinned with what appeared to be a spring pin, not the nice pin with the rounded ends...

Rick, I'm pretty sure they have changed. Nowadays, a 640-1 "Pro" has the fluted barrel and Trijicon sights...at least from what I can tell.

colt_saa, Thanks for the info. I appreciate it.

I pulled the grips...same number on the butt: CNT00XX. Anything unusual about the serial number on the top strap? Thanks...

To tell you the truth, I had the grips off, and didn't think to check. I'm at work, but will check later. There is definitely something stamped (CNT00XX) inside the top strap, and nothing on the yoke except "640-1". Thanks!

The serial number is CNT0XXX. There is nothing stamped on the yoke besides "640-1". Thanks for the reply.

I just got a nice 640-1 .357 in a trade. I've done quite a bit of research on J and K frames (or so I thought). The serial number isn't on the yoke like every "modern" S&W I've seen, it's inside the top of the frame...Is that unusual? Thanks! AT1984

Couldn't you just drop it in some aircraft paint stripper? The paint would lift off in 10 seconds.

I know it looks nice...

Thanks for the reply, Pizza Bob...

Can anyone tell me what model this is? The picture is from an ad, and states "40-6". I don't think that's correct...I don't think it's a 640, either (not "Centennial"). (I've tried to research it, and think it might be a 60 dash-something?) I've asked the seller, but nothing, yet. Says it's a...

If I'm not mistaken, the Tamers are made for the "Centennial" style frame. They look "right" on a 642.

I've been contemplating trading for a Model 60 that has a 638/649 hammer on it, as well as a wider trigger(?). Your comment "and this was a fairly common modification back in the 1970's" concerning the hammer saved me the trouble of searching all over for info! The M60 I'm looking at was shipped...
