This recent Gunbroker pickup fulfills a long time desire for a 2" Model 15.
In my opinion, one of the best looking S&W's ever made.

That was a great pick-up! Congratulations. I found my 15-4 snub a couple of years ago. It is crazy accurate and really beautiful. There's just something special about the Md 15 snub with square butt frame.
 
I agree with you about the looks of the Model 15 snubby. They definitely set off the cool meter. My 2" 15-3 is easily the best shooting snubby I own. Enjoy yours and thanks for sharing.

Wow. Your photos could convince me to search out a "Model 10 with target sights." Kidding, of course. I usually fall for the M&Ps, but your Masterpiece is befitting of its name.
 
1. I love the Model 15.

2. Own and have owned quite a few.

3. Owned a snubby 15, sold it. Somehow
it just didn't look right with those sights
and decided to stick with the Model 10/64
for snubbies. (Certainly didn't shoot it
any better than the Model 10/64 snubbies.)

4. So, somewhere out there is a lovely snubby
just waiting for a new owner if it doesn't already
have one.
 
Your recently acquired 15-2 reminded me of my Model 15.....so I dug it out of it's hiding place and snapped a couple of photos. Had not seen it in a while. I've had both my snubby 15 and 19 to the range at the same time and I've a got to give a bit of an edge to the 15. It just feels a bit better when shooting.

Any way here is my 15-3 from 1971. Just a hint of bluing loss on both sides of barrel and a very imperceptible turn line.

Congratulations on a quality purchase.

Always wondered why Smith never made a round butt version or a 2" model 67.

I agree with you on the 2" 15. I looked off & on for around 2 years. Ended up with a 2", R.B. 10-5 instead. (not sorry) Bob
