My name is Chris. I too am from California, but please don't hold that against me. I did not vote for the fools that run our state government... but I digress.

The portion of my arsenal consisting of Smith & Wesson products is small, but growing. I'll add a photo in the next day or two but in order of their acquisition, they are:

1. S&W Model 3000, field grade. 30" full-choke vent rib barrel. Two years ago I was fortunate to find an 18" POL. CYL. beautifully-blued (like the rest of the gun) from Don Corson in AZ.

2. Model 60-15 "J-Magnum" frame .357 3" barrel. I purchased this one to shoot .38s and have found .38 Special +P a near perfect load for it. I have dies and will begin reloading for it soon.

3. Model 351 PD - Bill Jordan's brainchild? Who knows! 10.8 ozs (empty) and 7-rounds capacity .22 WMR is a real popper.

4. M&P R8 - 5" barrel, 8-shot cylinder, scandium N-frame... the Triple Lock for the 21rst Century?

Thanks for having this great forum and incredible resource for S&W.

Howdy from South Carolina, and welcome to the forum.

Nice assortment of Smith's. :)
 
Welcome to the forum and yes your collection WILL become bigger before you know it. It will not be long before you are saying "I don't need anymore guns and that is the last one I buy." That of course will be said many many times but will possibly never have any truth to it as long as you can afford the next gun.
 
I appreciate your replies! sirs, and the warm welcome.

I've never, ever! said that... just ask my wife (as she rolls her eyes for the umpteenth time).

Too funny. Always like to be reminded I am not alone in those sentiments.
But these danged wabbit holes! They keep opening... just when I think I have the bases covered... this time I have Pierce and Taffin (again) to thank.
