"New" S&W Model 18

[fbauer]

Does anyone know anything about the new reintroduced"Classic" Model 18 presently for sale by S&W?
If so do you know the frame size? Is it K,L, or other?

The one in a local gun store is K frame with non tapered barrel.

K,just as they were before.They now have a patridge front sight,where the earlier ones had a ramp.

they don't have a pinned barrel, they have mim parts and an extra hole in the frame, but other than these small defects, they will probably outlast you and shoot fine in the process.

Ive been looking at the (new) model 18 as well. Its a very nice revolver...

Since I had a little time after work I took a trip to the S&W sportcenter/store today and they didnt have any. Actually didnt have much of anything... From my understanding theyre clearing out what they have in stock. They did have a model 617 4" though and I think I might go back tomorrow... .

If anyone bought one of the 17, 18 or 14's let us know how they shoot. Been curious on how accurate they are. Larry.
