SW 65-6 Ladysmith 3”

[mag318]

I switched out the rosewood grips with a set of VZ G 10 grips with a fairly aggressive texture.

Just won a 65-5 Ladysmith on GB. In excellent condition with all docs, box, papers, and bag. Stock rosewood grips as well as a pair of Hogue rubber grips

Paid right at $1k after tax, shipping, fees, etc. Will make a post with pics when it arrives

You got a heck of a buy on that one.

I'm looking at a Model 65 'Lady Smith' locally but it has a 'tear drop' shaped cylinder release and either blued or dark case hardened trigger and hammer. Some of the ones shown in this posting have flash chromed trigger and hammer and the old style cylinder release.

Did S&W make two versions of the M65 'Lady Smith'?

Also the one I'm looking at does NOT have the case or the rose wood grips and has some shiny spots on the bead blast finish. Otherwise in very nice condition.

I'm pondering on it. Oh well.

Bad news, cylinder locked up on me when picking up at the FFL. Wouldn't budge an inch. Sent it back to Gunbroker seller and he's refunding the money. Disappointed to say the least as it was excellent otherwise

One of only two Smith revolvers I have two of. They are both-5s, but one is flash chromed and other case hardened. Also the case hardened one has backstrap serrations.

The 65-5 LS is merely a 3" 66 with fixed sights.
What's not to like.

Best 3" K frame ever.



This is my second one. My ex-wife let someone steal the first one.
