Model 36

[bananaman]

Nothing special, but a Model 36! (1981) My 1st J at 61 yrs. old. A G.B. purchase. Been toying with getting one off & on for a while. So finally here. I have not shot it yet, but will this week, and yes I PAINTED THE FRONT SIGHT. I know that the pics don't it justice, and most people have seen 1 before. Pics are to prove it DID happen! Bob

Took it to the range today. Shot from 7 yards. I like it! It seems that I fired it pretty well 1 handed (right) double action. I'll figure it out. Fun to shoot! Bob

Very nice. I really enjoy shooting J-frame snubbies. I have a 60-14 (all steel) and a 360J (scandium frame, steel cylinder).

I really can't think of a better concealed carry piece than the Model 36, Model 60. Nice score, they are terrific guns.

Great gun! and a good score. I have five "J" frames and an early "flat latch" Model 36 is my favorite.

Carried a Mdl 36 for thirty years but now it's a Mdl 60 with a 3" barrel. Your going to like that little gun! It's just so practical it can go everywhere with you. A perfect example of form following function. Good luck with it.

You know as well as I do that I ran out of PINK!! Bob

I trades my M&P for a 36-7 and absolutely love it. Took it apart and cleaned it up and it works a whole lot better mechanically. Pulled so much carbon off of it and a little rust on the internals.

Very nice - thanks for the pics.

Another J frame? Can't have too many.

My attitude is that everyone ought to have at least one Chief's Special (whether blue or stainless) and more is better! Why? Just because!

YAY! Thanks, bananaman! Someone else besides me who thinks they're cute!

So is a blue ring octopus, but it can be deadly when the situation arises. An awful lot of Chiefs have stood between their bearers and some very bad things. Its older brother, the Terrier is cute as well, but its name is more revealing of its personality. Yes, I have both in my CCW rotation along with a 32 HE snub, my "trifecta."

You will not regret getting one, or more. I really do like the J frames.

Really like pic #3! You might have worn a plaid when you took #2. Bob
