Let's see those "snubbies"

[retnavyshooter]

I picked up a 66-1 "snubby" at a show last month and just had an idea to get a photo of all the "snubbies" in the safe. Don't have many but their sure purty. Top to bottom: Mod. 66-1; 19-3; 31-1; 15-2; and Mod 36

And the requisite debate: What Makes a Snubby; or, Do Three-inchers Count?

And the requisite debate: What Makes a Snubby; or, Do Three-inchers Count?

It's a fun debate. I'm on the 2" side of the fence, 2.5" for some guns (like my Models 19 and 686+ for instance). Maybe I'll change my mind after I acquire a 3" but I doubt it.

I and J frame=2"

K and L frame=2-2.5"

N frame=3"
At least this is where I stand on the issue.

Nether of mine are made before 1980, but all my revolvers are snubbies.

3" is only a snubby if its an N-frame:

For Ks:

For Js:

66-1, 19-3 and in the foreground is a 3" 60-10. Not too sure if 3" makes it under the bar for the classification of Snub. But It looks good with the other two.

My 686-4 442-2 and 19-6.Sorry about the 19 again but this thread just begged for another picture of it.The 19 and the 686 like to share the Ahrends Retros.

15-3 with some grips my next door neighbor gave me.



36-9, from 1999, the last year for the 36



Ruger SP101 a handful with some 125 grain 357s in it.



1968 Colt Detective Special, I carry this a lot. I wish it could talk, the wear makes it look like it has a story to tell.

 

[LedFowl]

I only have these two shooters.

Model 36, shipped in 1972.



Model 10-5, shipped about 1967.
