How about a new school N frame beauty contest?

[Rick_A]

The old guns shouldn't have all the fun.

2009 Nickel 22-4

Original grips:

Vintage Jay Scott grips I whittled into something more shooter, carry, and moon clip friendly.

Carries quite nicely in a Desantis thumb break scabbard.

The new ones get little love here, so if yours looks good to you or there's a nice picture of it, let's see it.

I'm proud of my new school 627 Pro, even though it comes with the lock, MIM parts and an unconventional slab-side barrel. Some call it an abomination, but I love it and will never part with it.

This 625 works just fine!



This one is nice too! 625 SAC

 

[JSW]

Here's my 27-7 built by the Performance Center in 2000. One of the best revolvers I've ever owned.

You boys let me know if this is too old.

629 5-incher 44 Mag shown with Diamond Pro grips by Pachmayr. Gun has since had The Plug installed with removal of ILS. Great shooter.

How dare you, sir!

Great turnout. Keep 'em coming.

The 625 PC guns are easily the best looking modern Smiths IMO (save for the grips) and those eight shot 27's have me contemplating trades and such. They look a little more 28 than 27, but what cool guns.

A little humble compared to some of these beauties posted already, but nevertheless, my favorite N-frame of all time. I once had a 1918 built M1917, but was forced to sell it (a rather tragic story, but I had no choice) and I decided to replace it with this 22-4. I really wanted one of those case hardened versions. I've thought about sending mine to Turnbull to have mine done, but can't decide; I really like it as is

Well Rick, you know there's enough of us that love the new ones plenty; see above

Its beautiful just like that. I like the case hardened look on hammers and triggers, I haven't made up my mind about case hardening on an entire gun. I am on the fence.

Your Smith, looks the way a blued Smith should look.

Thanks Tom, I concur!

Does 80s qualify as new?

 

[Cal44]

Here is my 657-3 Classic Hunter.

Does it quality as "new school"?
