I've been living in Va Beach,Va for 56 years and am set to retire in 2 months. Looking forward to having more shooting and reloading time, with some fishing in between.

I only have six handguns and four long guns, that's not many, right? Of my current collection, I have a 1st gen S&W M&P Sport AR15 5.56 and a SW22 Victory.

According to my wife, I was supposed to have purchased my last gun(that was two guns ago).

But I've recently been bitten by the S&W 3rd gen semi-auto bug. I think this bug is way worst than COVID-19.

I'm a little old school in that I prefer the hammer fired DA/SA pistols over the newer striker fired stuff. I absolutely, positively have to get a decent 3913 or CS9(or both), I also want a 6906, and then maybe a CS45. Researching all of these guns has brought me to this wonderful forum with its wealth of knowledge and helpful members. I any eager to learn, willing to help and excited about meeting new members who have the same affliction for the 3rd Gen Semi-Autos.

Welcome to the forum from SW Ohio. You came to the right place if you are looking for information and eye candy for all things S&W.
 
Welcome to the forum. The gun bug bites hard doesn't it. I keep saying I don't need another gun, but........
 
If you love 3rd gens, your collection isn't complete without a 1076.

...and a 1086...

...and a 1026...

...and a 4053 converted to 10mm...

Glad you happened upon us. Enjoy the forums and best wishes for a safe and happy retirement.
