The ultimate Model 19/66 Combat Magnum thread

[Chubbo]

S&W 19 2.5"

Here is the only Mod. 19 that I have, a 19-3. When I got it there were no
Round butt target grips available, so I cut down and fit these grips with a filler in the bottom front. I don't remember what S&W they were from. I cut in the red front sight, added the WO rear sight, and the smooth combat trigger, and had a trigger job done on it. The wood case was the first of 20 some that I have built. It has a Bianchi 5B basket weave holster & Belt combo.

Model 19

My first Smith & Wesson revolver was a Model 19-3 4" that I bought as a young rookie officer on the PD. I virtually wore that revolver out shooting it in matches, qualifications and for fun. I let a deputy sheriff talk me out of it and I've regretted it ever since.

At the local gun show yesterday, I found what appears to be an un-fired Model 19-6 so I quickly corrected my mistake of some 30 years ago and brought it home. I hope that it shoots as well as my first Model 19.

On of the 200 3" Model 19-3's made for the French government with fixed sights in 1974.

I'm lucky enough to have 3 3inch 66s..... and this 19 still is a gun that sets my heart a flutter!

Never understood why Smith didn't use this barrel profile on the 13 and the 65 (except for the short run of non LadySmiths ( a grail gun for me))?

What short run of non-Lady Smiths had this barrel profile?

 

[BAM-BAM]

What short run of non-Lady Smiths had this barrel profile?

Can't tell you; but over the years there have been pictures of "Factory" 65-ladysmiths without the "Ladysmith" etching.
