How About an L-Frame Pic Thread?

[2hawk]

Been a while since I looked in here...

and I've neglected to update

581 that I "wrecked" with a factory reblue:

my shooter 581:

and the hiking gun, 681:

nice guns, all

Only one L frame...looks good with the K's I think!

Just a plain ol' 686 no dash I bought new in 1982, shown with a custom presentation box my Dad made for my birthday that year.

 

[GreenRiverBoy]

According to my inflation calculator, that price would equate to only about $480 today. That was an excellent price even in 82.

Here's my 586 no dash, no M that I picked up a few weeks ago, in the box with everything right down to the original sales slip. Still even smells like Smith oil

Can you believe the original price back in 1982? I paid a LOT more than that, believe me.

Dude! Is the bottom one what I think it is?

If you're asking if its a Performance Center 6-shot 586 4" L-Comp, then the answer is yes. It's the only one I ever seen.

This one is called "Stinkbutt."

Because the butt retains the overpowering odor of the previous owners' Eau-de-Doo-dah-Dey cologne.

It's not the only one I've seen but it is nice.

Here's my 681. It's a retired deputy's gun that's the slickest shooting S&W I've ever owned. Everything you need and nothing you don't:

My 686-3 with 8.375" barrel.

geodimeter:
I had one just like yours, once. Had to sell due to medical bills. Fine revolvers. Very accurate. Loved the 4 position front sight on that l-o-n-g barrel. Maybe I will find another some day.

Sweet find!! Nice "L"!!!

Thanks! This one will stay secure in the safe. My other 686 will be the shooter!

The ole humpback.... my only L frame.

You showed yours, now I'll show mine

Traded an M&P 45 auto for this one and never looked back. Ex-deputy's gun from our county sheriff's department:

smooth as a baby's butt and shoots as good as it looks.
