ALL OF THEM... right after buying Berkshire Hathaway, Apple, Microsoft & CokaCola stock

Model 16-4 in any barrel length.

Well loving revolvers, I would have one of the LH 19-7 3" guns with the magnaporting. Would have rather just got one of the barrels before the porting. Then a few more 4" 14s and not shot them. Throw in a few more PC autos.

I like the full lug guns. The 4 " and 5" guns are about perfect.
Love the full lugs.

Were Hogue monogrips original equipment on N-frames in the 80s-90s?

I believe they were factory supplied . Here is a link to a discussion referring to the monogrips.
Looking for Info on S&W 29-5 'Classic Hunter' .44 Mag 6” Barrel Non-Fluted Cylinder

The 629-4

I looked into finding all types of the dash 4. With some research I realized it would cost over 30k at the going rates as there were more than 20 variations of the -4 629.

 

[JMD999]

Some 632's, would post pics but it takes me too much time to figure out.

Sometimes I get lucky

I would BAN ALL FULL LUG BARRELS........Waste of steel and just makes gun heavier.

Hear! Hear!—My sentiments exactly. Bravo

You would need to go quite a bit further back in time to when Colt made the pythons

If I could go back to the 90's, I'd be buying guns from the 50's through the 70's a lot cheaper than they are now. S&W hasn't made a revolver since 1982 that I'm interested in.

Yes, I have to agree with you about the pined & recessed pre 82 smiths. Unfortunately I have been selling the nicer collector types to afford more lower priced shooters.

There was a time when the classic models with there full under lug came out, that I thought they were ugly looking and avoided them. Now 30 years later, somehow a dozen or so have made it into the safe.

I ‘picked up’ most everything else that I wanted.

Have a 629-3 Classic and a 29-5 classic that both came with the rare rubber monogrip with factory metal SW medallions that make those otherwise ugly grips actually look good.

 

[mtgianni]

16-4, in 4" 6" and 8 1/2" just for fun. Mountain guns in 44 and 45 along with 17, 18, 686, 657 and 629. I believe quality was better then.

 

[Engine49guy]

The SW Performance center guns from that era were true hand built gems and have become very collectable.

I shoot the pre-82's, even the nice ones, for the most part. I never could get my head around the full underlug on a S&W. Somehow they look great on a Colt, though.
