Greetings-
I am a Smith & Wesson enthusiast and small collector. I've been collecting guns for many decades now and have grown an appreciation for S&W quality. I collect all kinds of guns from 1880s to modern, so I like just about anything.
I've been doing some research on some recent S&W acquisitions and the google searches seemed to always lead to this forum for good info so I joined up.
I have the following S&Ws so far and am always on the lookout for others - especially interested in a many of the under appreciated S&W autos but a big revolver fan too.
So my collection isn't big or very specific, but I appreciate the Smiths. I also own Berettas, Sigs, Colts, etc. and they are fine but somehow I just dig the Smiths.
I really am interested in picking up some more compact 2nd-3rd-4th generation guns that seem to be bargains lately - I guess the world has gone polymer crazy - which is fine, but just appreciate the metal guns at their peak of quality.
hopeful to find some nice specimens of 6906, 469 and so on.
Thanks for letting me in I hope to learn a bit here.
