WHO DOES THAT?!?
That is the way one of our illustrious and feisty members sent it to me. I guess he/we have a sense of humor.

That's how my model 10 came...I was a little worried until I opened the box.

Gone but not forgotten. Sold this one to a forum member.
Originally a 4" model 19 on which I had a 2.5 barrel transplant surgery performed.

Does a 3.5" N-frame model 27 count as a snub?

Here is my 31-1 that I have been carrying recently.
I carry it loaded with the cartridges in the speed loader -- Buffalobore 100 grn wadcutters.
I also carry the speed strip with Buffalobore 115 grn flat points as a reload. Wadcutters are a little slower to reload than the more rounded bullet style.
This gun weighs 19 oz empty.
The original J frame square grip fits my hand well. There is just enough room for three fingers on the grip. The J frame round butt factory grip is just a little to small and isn't quite as nice -- at least for my hands.

I recently got myself a non Smith snubbie in the form of my SP-101. It's big, its beefy and it handles .357 with ease, but if I hadn't needed to pay bills, well I would have kept my 649 too.
The 649
I so hated to sell this gun, to me the 3 1/2 inch Model 27 is an honorary snubbie.
The first J frame I ever owned
Model 10-6 2 inch
I found this well worn Colt at a gun shop for $175 but it had a great action and perfect bore.
Not a snubbie but a nice little carry gun, a Walther Model 8 in .25 ACP. It digested everything without a problem. It was once a back up gun to a sheriffs investigator. Got offered double what I paid, wish I had it back was nice to drop in a pocket during the summer time.
