the elusive .38

[Doogy]

i've been on the hunt for a really nice 64-8 .38 Special in the 3" barrel size. The 4 inchers abound, but my elusive 3" seems to be a unicorn. Are there any places I should check, maybe dealers that specialize in S&W revolvers that are out-of-production?

thanks for any help!

It's not exactly what you are looking for but if you look down the thread titles in this section a guy shows a link to a place selling 3" M65s. They are 357s but you can shoot the 38s too.

Place an ad in the WTB Classifieds on the Forum. I've seen several at shows - they're around.

Good Luck,

Jerry

thanks for the help, guys! Nice 65s that guy has, although I have a couple 357s already, i just have an itch for that exact 64-8. I'll place an ad and also keep my eyes peeled.

Regards,
Doug

Doogy, I saw a M10-8 a while back on an auction site. It was a SB Aussie version. Asking price was $480.00. I wish I had jumped on it. I've also seen some 64-8s in 3-inch with "CDC" stamped on them. I had a chance on one but lost the auction. I have a M65 3-inch that will do everything I need, but I too want a 64-8. Good luck in your search!

Hi again, what's the appeal of the -8 configuration of the Model 64?

Call Jim's Gun Shop in Raleigh, NC, 919-772-0995. There was there last week, 3", but not a -8.
