My "new" 1982 nickel-plated Model 37 (no dash). I traded a KelTec P32 w/2 magazines, a nylon pocket holster, and a Fobus paddle holster for it. I put the Hogue Bantam Grip on it.

Here is a pair in my j-frame collection. I call these His-N-Hers. I will let the viewer decide which one belongs to the "Her".

Top one is her's. At least my girls like the 'skinny' grip shape.

Hondo....I can understand that would be "rational thinking" for a normal small-handed shooter.....but my wife is not rational. She is very fashion conscious and realized right off the bat there was a BIG difference in the looks of the guns. To her...in her mind...the one with the boot-grips looked more expensive. Every time I take it to clean it for her....she follows me around to make sure I don't swap grips. I think if I swapped the grips on the guns she would not notice. She follows the grips. The "skinny" handled 317 is mine.

My pre lock 317 and my no lock 642.
The plug is .200 diameter stainless .135 long with a small
v groove centered at .085. It is very simple and uses the
existing retaining parts.

Here's my latest. M36-1. 275 Tacos on gunbroker.

36-1 Target

I just got a 36-1 very similar. 3" HB but with square butt and target sights. A lot more "tacos" though. Your's was a good deal!

S&W Model 36-1,38 Special,3in.barrel,Adj.Sights : Revolvers at GunBroker.com

I saw it today. It was suppossed to be unfired and it leaves no doubt that it's unfired. It's truly 100%, no cylinder ring at all, but no box...
I don't know how it even could have been test fired at the factory. More pics when I get it home and out of 'quarantine'.

On mine the bluing was near perfect. The slightest of turn lines. Grips are about average for the age 1981 & serialed to the gun. Rusty & dry inside. Considering the grips & the action, I might believe this gun was reblued. But, there was a ton of gunk built up under the grips, so I don't really know.

Can't tell for sure from photos but I don't see anything to make me think it's reblued especially since the case colors on the hammer and trigger show no wear that I can see.

I really like your 442. I want mine to look just like it!
