At the back of the current S&W Collector's Journal, I noticed that well-known gun writer and friend to all of us, John Taffin, has crossed the rainbow bridge. The gun world will miss him.
Some years ago, "Sixgunner" John advised me to take advantage of S&W's offer to replace a broken handgun at their cost to obtain a CS-45. Excellent advice! Years later, S&W had an offer to military personnel to buy discounted handguns, and John advised me to purchase a Model 27 Classic. Again, excellent advice!!
Requiescant en pace my friend!
