Anyone notice the Model 147A for sale on Auction Arms, by jackthedog? I had never heard of one, and had to go Supica to find out about it. Never knew they made a 59 with a steel frame!

Here's a link to the closed auction. SMITH & WESSON ~ MODEL 147A RARE Steel-Frame Model 59...Only 112 Made...ANIB For Sale at GunAuction.com!! I was planning on sniping this one with @ $2000.00 bid but when I looked back it was already way past my snipe bid point. It closed at $3634.00.

Probably true, but when the item represents a now-or-never opportunity, sometimes you just have to go for it.
