65-5 LS with new grips

[sprscientist]

The 65 LS is in my opinion the near pinnacle of 3" K frame goodness. Picked up some smooth RB target grips on this forum and I think they are my favorite grips on this.

Yup, the laminated "Ace" factory stocks were...odd. Perhaps they fit the ladies to which the Smith was marketed better.

13PC and 65LS with Spegels.
I really like 3" K frames.

Great minds…

Couldn't agree more!

Edit: I accidentally quoted the wrong comment. What I meant to quote was "The 3 inch 65 LS is the pinnacle of K frame goodness!". Icouldn't agree more!

I think they are beautiful, just not very functional.

Each has it's own function. K Frames are better as an exposed carry piece to me. Just to big to hide well.

The Model 60 Ladysmith hides extremely well. But to each their own........

I believe the man was talking about the smooth rosewood magna grips and not the guns themselves.

Sorry to intrude. But the same can be said of grips. I like a wooden grip on a target gun.

cb22 I am fortunate to have the same 2 examples of 3 inch Ks.
I tend to lean more toward the LS over the 13pc. Just can not warm up to the ports.

Love those grips.

Closest ones I have in the style are a set of Ahrends I had made a few years ago. I wish Kim would have added the S&W logo.
