the 3 inch 13 and 65 LadySmith were having a "thing" so they didnt show up for the fotoshoot :P
 
Beautiful guns and a great job with the photography too!

Thank you to ALL for sharing.

This will be a thread I view often.

Hopefully with less envy as I acquire some of my own.

Which brings up a good question. Where does one find such guns?
 
I was in the market for a Kimber 1911 Custom TLE II and on the verge of buying. Until I found the "Who's Got Snubbies?" thread.

After viewing the many fine guns this past Friday nite, I went looking for one myself. Ended up with a s&w 686-6, 3" barrel, 7 shot on Saturday afternoon. Photo soon !!

Thanks a lot guys !!!

P.S. - best place to buy grips ?

Here's mine - a new 686+ with Crimson Trace grips. It looks almost "big" when compared with the little Charter Arms Undercover .38 Special. The Charter Arms is one of the old models, stamped in Bridgeport, Conn.

i just picked one up a 2'' 64-6 SS no pics cant find my camera hook up to download
 

My good man, is this a square butt model 36 no dash from the mid 80's? Or do the stocks (very nice stocks BTW ;)) have some type of round to square conversion thingie in them?

I've been looking for a square butt model 36 from that era, but I didn't know exactly when they stopped making the square butts.

If you would ever consider trading that square butt 36 (if it IS a square butt 36) for a round butt 36 from the same era (mid 80's - serial number AEZ42xx) give me a shout. :D
 
Only 2. A model 36 and Grandpa's 38 S&W.

It aint a beauty but it serves a purpose

Here is my every day carry gun. It's a 338PD Air Lite Ti. Titanium cylinder and scandium alloy frame. With an empty weight of 10.65 oz. and its compact size it is a pleasure to carry.

Here is the 638 that I carry as a BUG and also as a primary CCW. Nothing fits in my pocket better than this little J-Frame.

Here are a couple of my favorites, the 342PD is my daily carry gun, the 686-4 with the Nill grips and the C&S rear sight is also a gun I carry quite a bit, I had it cut for moon clips. The 629-4 is my latest gun, I have still yet to shoot this gun as it is NIB.....I do plan to shoot it one of these days!
 
Here are a couple of recent acquires:

Yes I do, and I love them. My first one is a model 60 fully engraved by F.A.H. Another one I have is a model 649-2 and the third one is a ( Please read the story below to find out ) ( This is what I had to write in response to the great story that was on yesterdays ( S&W Forum > Main > S&W Hand Ejectors: 1896 to 1961 ) Thank You for the nice story. I have to admit that I had to scroll down to see if there was a picture before I could finish reading the story. At the last gunshow, ( a few weeks ago ) You see, I had to hunker down too. It was for a good 45 minutes or more, it was for a Smith & Wesson Model 63 I had to hunker down, almost right up to 10:00am. Thats when this dealers store opened. He was waiting so he could call them ( his people ) to see what they had into it, money wise. You see it was taking in on trade. I was like a mother hen sitting on one egg not wanting it to roll away. You see, I saw it in the first 10 to 15 minutes of the show. I walked the rest of that show so fast to get back to him in ten minutes or so. When I got back, somebody else had it there hands. I was scared that I lost it. What do I do, I said to myself. I did nothing but watched. And then it happened, he set it down, and thats when I hunkered down. I picked it up, and it never left my hands. Then he made the call, he gave me the thumbs up. And thats when I knew it was mine. What a good day it was. Box, cleaning kit, and everything.
