S&W Handguns Brochure - Lots of Good Info!

[civil1977]

Here's a S&W Handguns Brochure I picked up a while back and I thought I would scan it and share with the Forum. There's lots of good info on the various models as well as accessories offered at that time. Based on the models and features shown and described, I'm guessing this dates from the mid-1970s. The Model 16 K-32 isn't shown and that disappeared around 1974. The mahogany presentation case is only shown as an option for the .41 and .44 magnums, but they started offering the cases as an option for the Model 27 .357 magnum around 1975. The 5" field barrel and 5.5" EFS barrel for the Model 41 are shown as accessories, but they disappeared around 1975. So my best guess is 1974-1975 timeframe. Enjoy.

I want one of everything .

I'm with you there. I noticed there are some check marks next to a few models and it got me thinking about acquiring one of each.

I'm thinking this was a dealer brochure since it has the three hole punch for a three ring binder, like something the dealer would keep behind the counter and bring out when someone had a question or wanted to place an order.
