How much does a Smith & Wesson Model 15 with 2" barrel weigh empty?

I have gotten interested lately in the Model 15" with 2" barrel. I searched wikipedia, etc, and am having a hard time finding specs for the 2". Do you know what one weighs? Thanks very much!

Most places I searched list the weight at 34 ounces.

Thanks very much. Might that be the 4" barrel?

I just weighed mine, and it was 30 oz, (but that included a Tyler T grip) I'm guessing the T Grip weigh's about 1 to 1 1/2 oz, so 28 1/2 or 29 oz is pretty close.

Thanks very much for doing that! Your 15 is really a great looking snubby! I have a very handy 642 Powert Port. light and fires +P's. But man, I am tired of the recoil. I obtained my long desired Model 13 with 3" barrel and am very happy. But I have a new dream of getting a 15. A little lighter and adjustable sights. I once had a 66 with a 2.5 barrel and adjustable sights and miss it. I was quite comfortable with that one and should have kept it! Now I am thinking also of parting with my 642 and getting a 432UC.

FWIW my nickel 15-3 weighs 31.6 ounces with smooth target grips, so I'd agree with the 29-ish ounce estimate.

Thanks, Frailer, and thank you for your service.

Thank you, Friends, for chatting about the model 15 2" revolvers. As I have two, one nickel (unfired-in-the-box), and a blue one (123 rounds total thru it), I find these to be so pleasing to the eye with the square butt, and the adjustable sites. Every time they come up on the forum, I am glad to see I am not the only one who is such an enthusiast about this model. Once my daughter shows me how to put photos of mine on the site, I will put them up. As I have a couple of 2" model 64's, there is not too much need to shoot the 15's; but, the blued one is ready should the desire develop. It seems I am simply the caretaker for the nickel version until it leaves my collection for the next owner…much like holding a Picasso, Dali, or Monet-classic carbon-steel art (either blued or nickel) must be cherished for the ages.

I would love to see a photo of the unfired nickel!
