Who's Got Snubbies?
- Thread starter Foodfuzz

have parted with a few...not many...
I gave this M.60 LadySmith to my personal trainer...but I can shoot it again if I ask nicely.
I have also parted with a 3" m.36,blue, a 640-1 (only because my 640 no dash has such a great trigger, and it seemed excessive to keep both), a nickeled m.19-4 (just because I didn't care for it all that much, prefer my m.15 and 10), and a 3rd Issue Detective Special (because I prefer my Cobra, and also found a First Issue DS close to my birthdate which simply reeks with atmosphere and a sense of events gone by, if it could only speak...).
The best looking? my blue model 49 with stags and Tyler tee is one of my favorites, also my nickel 36 with Ajax faux ivories and polished manganese bronze Tyler tee, I need to take a picture of that one, and my Cobra, but I really need to take one of these group photos I am seeing here, they are outstanding.

Gunlovingirl: Great choice of ammo for that M60! I use Nyclad in my snub revolvers, too--mostly 125gr. standard-pressure, but I've also got some +P from back when Nyclad was still a Smith & Wesson brand:

It's the only Airweight revolver ever sold by the Performance Center--basically a PC-tuned, magnaported 442 with Eagle Secret Service grips. A limited run of just four hundred and fifty were built as a "stocking dealer exclusive" back in 1994.
I'm not sure why they assigned it model number 460, but it was done long before the current X-frame Model 460 was ever developed.
Here's a closeup:

M-15 3
WOW what a great M-15! Can you tell us who did the work? I could never understand why Smith would offer a RB M-10 and not a RB M-15 2".
I have a "spare" M-14-3 and I keep thinking "3" bbl, RB, XS Big Dot front, CS rear". I doubt I'll ever do it, but I do love short barrel Ks.
I am a snubbie fan. Here are a few of mine.
15-3
686 no dash and 686-4
625-3's
19-4 and 66-2

Some awesome pics, guys (and gals 
). Lot's of Chief's and Centennials, but not many Bodyguards.
How disturbing.
Anyway...
I have three:
Smith & Wesson Airweight J frame model 38 "Bodyguard" from 1985.
Colt "Cobra" snubbie from 1974.
And...
Smith & Wesson Airweight K frame model 12-2 snub from 1970.
Sorry, no pics. I'm camera illiterate.

Can't forget the humpbacks!
SmithNut's photo more than made up for the lack of Bodyguards in this thread, but here's another small assortment--a pair from the mid-60's, both steel and Airweight; an MSP-variant M38 from 1975, and a 638-1 from 1991:

SmithNut has a problem....
Jeezums SmithNut, I hope you are getting some help for your problem, this is just a little excessive...if there is anything I can do to help you on to the road to recovery, just let me know...

Awesome pic Smithnut and DC7! Yes, Bodyguards do indeed rock. I only have one...currently. Like a dipshit, I let my model 49 go in lieu of a K frame model 12-2 snubbie. I guess it was a good trade, I just miss that little guy. Words can't express the love I have for the curves of the Bodyguard. It's kinda like a curvy woman. You youngsters can have all them runway models you want. Save the curvy, bootylicious, sturdy women for me.
