My wife and I have been looking off and on for a replacement of her Lady Smith 65-5 that I purchased for her brand new on 03/28/1994 which was 1 month and 10 days after we were married for $392.00. It may have 300 rounds through it. The gun seems to have grown in value so it will be a "safe queen".
Today she purchased her "own" (stupid CO law ****) firearm and she picked up a beautiful new S&W 637-2 Performance Center .38 Spl +P (with very little prodding). We found a really , really cool gun shop and soon to be indoor range close to home. The people there are so patient and helpful and the prices are very fair. It does have a lock but it is a sweet little revolver and fits her really well. Since CO law (stupid) will not allow me to touch it she will need to learn how to clean it all by herself. If we ever move to a free state I sure would like to try a PC...(I mean I'm not jealous or anything but I have wanted a 627 (8) shot PC snubby for so long and she beat me on the PC track...). Oh well gotta love a lady that understands pure quality (taught by yours truly BTW). It's OK...I am fine, really am...
