S&W pre model 10 2"

[k22fan]

I was referring to the snub owned by the original poster, John. High horn v. sharp shoulder? I do not know the difference. I'd have sworn my roughly 1950 2" M&P has one or the other and its stocks are numbered to the gun. The stocks on mine look like the stocks on 22hipower's 2" 1951 pistol pictured in reply #8. The stocks on John's pistol have rounded bottom edges and the tops of their horns are too rounded. I doubt they number to the gun.

High horn magnas were stocks used on the Model 40 and 42. Sharp shouldered magnas are like those stocks in post #8 by 22hipower. The OP says the stocks are original and was asked if they numbered to the gun but never replied. They are PC magnas which might have been available on his gun depending on when it shipped. I think it is likely they are replacements.

I think we have just a bit of a terminology misplacement.

The term “high horn” is a dedicated term for the style of upward-extended stocks used on the J-frame Centennial series.

It is not applicable to any K-frame style at any time. As Guy says, the only difference that matters in this gun’s timeframe is the distinction between the sharp-shoulder magnas and the later more rounded shoulder.

Seeing K PC magnas and Groton, CT in the same thread kinda' had me spooked for a minute. Mostly the Groton part.
