Hi... I am new to the S&W Forum, but pretty established in the Beretta Forum under the same name.

Being a former Marine MP, marksmanship and tactical firearms instructor, I fell in love with Berettas. Although I did carry a S&W while on embassy duty.

My brother loves S&Ws, and I was lucky enough to buy three guns off him. Those three guns prompted a lot of learning on my part. Now I am in love with S&Ws too. Guess an just a sucker for a nice gun.

I am the proud new owner of a 39-2, 4006, 4506-1...and I have had an old war era .38 Special revolver for awhile. What should I get next to grow the S&W collection?

Thanks for having me in the Forum.

Welcome from Wisconsin!

What should you get next? Personally, I've always kept my eyes and my options wide open. Instead of focusing on trying to find a particular gun, I have made it a point of being prepared to pounce on anything I find that fits my collection.

Welcome from a 'buncher'.
If you make it to the 'bunch', you'll answer your question just by looking at the variety.

Welcome aboard from coastal North Carolina - spittin' distance from MCAS Cherry Point.

What should you get next to grow your collection? Well, I'd opt for something that weighed less and had a shorter barrel so I could conceal carry it inside the waistband, e.g., a compact in the 3900 series, 6900 series, or a CS model in any caliber.

Welcome from The Carolina Upcountry. I am a former Buckeye, born and bred in Cincinnati. Came South for the weather.
For your next Smith look at a vintage S&W revolver with a Model number. and no lock. M19 and M29 are particularly nice.
