My 3 inch ported 629-4 trail boss.


Gary, the guy that received the 942 was Wiley Clapp, the gunwriter, according to the S & W Standard Catalogs. I'd be curious to see it and wonder if he still has it. I'll bet it's a handfull; I had a 940 once and it kicked like a government mule to me. I prefered .357's out of a 640-1 to that and sold it. Didn't like the extraction issues either. But, like you, I love snubbies!I Just looked through ten pages of Snubbies..
WOW!!
I might need therapy after looking at all those Great Smiths Colt & Rugers..
There's absolutely no doubt that a handy little J Frame will get carried when a much bigger & heavier weapon will be left at home..
I never feel outguned when I'm carrying my Airweight 642..
Loaded with the Standard Velocity 125gr Federal Nyclads..
I'm Told that the first step in the 12 step program is to admitt you have a problem..
I DO!@! I Love Snubs..
I still Wanna Know who the Guy is who has the only 942??
Still Looking for a 3" K Frame M547 9mm

Yep, I love the little J frames. The older 60's generally look a bit dull by now, so I prefer to brighten them up by hand with a little Flitz or Simichrome.You DO love the Chief's Special, don'tcha WW!
Did you polish those three model 60s yourself? They look as shiny as that model 36! What did you use? Flitz?
