I recently joined to find out about what I thought might be an inaccurate account about the Brazilian model of 1938, also known as the S&W model of 1917. I confirmed that there were only 25,000 in the contract, but as for the 11,000 or 14,000 that were supposedly never sent to Brazil I have not found any verification.
I own two of these nice old revolvers that I have to admit are better than most.
As for me, I am an Air Force Veteran who served from 1983 to 1990. I worked at Century International Arms for a little over a year in 90 - 91. I had a 17 year long problem with a heart condition which I had cured through an ablation procedure last year. (Well at least the problem hasn't resurfaced at this point)
I'm sticking with gunsmithing and collecting for now as well as hunting and the other shooting disciplines.
My wife and I have three children and in our mid 40s are expecting a 4th in early June.
I have a C&R license at the current time, but I am considering a manufacturers license in the future. (I had a dealers license for several years, but things didn't work out at the time for me to open a full service shop)
That's about all you need to know about me except that I don't pull any punches when it comes to politics and freedom. I believe free speech can't be compromised and shouldn't restricted. That doesn't give anyone the right tell someone else their speech is offensive just because they don't want to hear it. I am a Constitutionalist and a conservative and I take my oath seriously.
