Last week I plunked down some serious dough for a S&W 686 Pro Series -- pickup day would be Tuesday but I don't know if the LGS is even going to be open!
This is sort of the crazy thing! I've just sort of been jonesing for a '69 (STOP!) but holding off. I figured I better grab one today before the entire SHTF occurs. I was in a small LGS today and some older chick was literally reading every question on the form OUT LOUD! She clearly has never purchased a firearm before! The 23 year old at the end of the counter kept asking the owner for clarity on every question! What in the heck are these folks going to do with whatever they are buying? I think that the first litmus test of firearms purchase should be, "Do I understand the question"?!?!
If you find a .327 now, I would go ahead and buy it! That $1,000 is going to end up being $800 at best then you'll buy SPAM and toilet paper with it. Grab the .327, give it a kiss and sleep the best sleep!

If I had the money and were going to get a S&W revolver, I'd probably go after my grail gun, a 640ND. Been after one for quite a few years, came close to getting one a couple of times but it always fell through.
But I'd keep my eyes open for a DAO 649 in .38 Special, too.
Right now I only have two S&W revolvers, a 642ND and a 642-1.

I will give a heads up here. My FFL advised me to come in early and do the paperwork for a gun I have on order being shipped. The FFL was afraid that government May shut down gun transfers. Several states have already done this.
Now, off topic, I did order a 223 / 556 pistol that I have been kind of watching because my old eyes work better with red dots and sights. Decided to buy before they became unavailable or over priced.
I already have two model 57 41 magnums and two 29-2 44s.
If the end of the world is here, I plan to strap one of those in a holster on my side. No Need to keep it out of sight.

Do you have a list of states that have this??

Also, the FFL delays have become quite long. This will help decrease your wait when the weapon arrives.

No, I have already heard of several Northern cities clamping down, she told me Tennessee was locking down now.
No end of days Smiths on my list. I already own or have owned a bunch of grail guns.
I am toying with the idea of getting a commercial 1917 that is being offered locally. Price seems a bit high for the condition. $750. Guessing from the pictures maybe a 85-88% gun.

I went to my LGS then to Academy, saw the lines everywhere and realized how many folks that I would be standing next to for how long and aborted the mission, but I did want a S&W 940 from the LGS to take to Valhalla with me, but I will have to hope it can wait!
Last one I bought was mid January. It's a model 69.
Also paid for a 4.25" Python on the 10th of January. If the world is gonna end, it will probably happen before I get it at this rate.

Yes, 69 is slightly shorter.
I will keep using my six shooter and straight razor, BUT will add a Brazilian mail order Bride and also keep my Russian mail order Bride.
OK, thanks much. I was wondering if they are long enough to shoot Keith bullets in magnum brass without deep seating them.
