Nice setup, Sixgun! Not trying to be ignorant, but what do you have in the small leather cases on the left w/ something out at the top? Thanks! (I like your cap of Skeeter!)

Is this Nano bore cleaner available in the US..?

I wonder if they came w/ the S&W shotgun shells inside? I'm so old I can remember their nickle heads and I believe, blue colored, hulls? I'll have to look now to see if I still have a box stashed away? I never saw their blue plastic box, however.

Glad you're OK, Dan! Good you had on eye and ear protection at the time, also.(y) I HOPE I never experience a case separation?

I like my 'new to me' Model 18-3 with 4" bbl. I've wanted one for a long time and finally, after waiting a LONG time, found one for a 'reasonable' price. It just feels good in my hand. Plus, I'm a long time fan of the .22LR. Brittman

Model39, That's it! They are EXACTLY what my M48 has on the front sight. (Nice grips you have on them both.) Thanks for posting your photos of your revolvers. I appreciate it! The color on the Patridge front sight certainly stands out, doesn't it? I was amazed the first time I looked at...

Thank you, Bill / Doc44, This Forum is a wealth of information! You gentlemen have THE answers and it's a pleasure to learn from you. I had never seen any of these until just recently when I was looking for a used S&W M48. I'm learning now...and love the gun! With my aging eyes, I can...

Capt. F., Thanks for your reply. I did not see it until just now. I will check it out. It makes me feel better now, knowing there is just such a part available...! Brittman

murphydog, Sorry for the misspelling! (Operator error from an old Ruffed grouse hunter, I guess?) :o Nightowl, I'll have to get a letter I suppose? It does look factory to me, even with a TINY vertical pin through the top of the patridge sight. It appears to be tight and is the exact...

Gentlemen, I recently two dfferent M48 revolvers, each with an 8 3/8" bbl. both of them had a red insert fitted into the respective Partridge front sight. Is this factory? Mine has this, a 1974 gun, plus a white-outline rear, TG, TH, and smooth TT. It too, has the long barrel, on it. The...

Hey guys, What was the ave. velocity of the .22 Jet cartridge in the M53 revolver? Anyone know? (Depends on bbl., I know.) Just wondering if it was close to the .22WMR cartridge, that's all. A COOL piece of ammo for sure! Also, great photos... Thanks! Brittman

Hey guys, thanks for the help and photos - very interesting piece there! I did see a couple of boxes of .22 Jet ammo at an auction yesterday, but I don't know what they sold for? This site is a wealth of information. Thank you! Brittman

Cool M53 'Jet' handgun! One question: how do you switch the hammer from CF to RF on it? Just wondering? Thanks. Brittman

Howdy gentlemen & ladies! I've been in this shooting game for over 55 yrs. now and still LOVE it. I have shot Skeet, Trap, SC, BP, rimfire matches in rifle & pistol and finally decided to take the time to learn more about our great S&W handguns. (I do enjoy fishing when the weather...
