  • A couple of S&w .38 spls. old school, but cool

    Yeah, I got some plastic fantastics, but I like the old school stuff. Cut my teeth on my dad's service weapon a S&W Mod 28 Highway Patrolman, .357. I use to sneak it off in Jr. High along with our old station wagon to shoot old ammo dad left lying around. Love old revolvers. So, here are a couple ya might like.

    This is a S&W 1905 Hand Ejector, 3rd change from around 1910. Dated by the serial # of 168,XXX. It's a 38 spl, 4 inch, 6 shot. It has the old 5 screw frame and longer action than the later model 10s & other K frames. In great shape inside and out. Great shooter. A hand tooled leather holster that came with it.



    And here is it's much younger brother, a S&W Mod 10-5 from teh mid 80s. It is much the same except for the shorter action, lowered hammer spur, 2 less frame screws and newer finish. DA is smooth like the old gun. Both are .38 spls. I shoot mostly home case wadcutters outof them that I handload. However, I keep some +P Rem. 158 gr. JHPs in them for pest control around the yard. Don't feed them a steady diet of +Ps. The newer gun would probably take it, but the older one maybe not.

    The Model 10-5.

            My first revolver, tail end of the 50's, was a 4" Smith Model 10. And I'm still addicted to K-Frames, Current inventory holds four.

                Bought a model 10 for my wife several years ago. Every house should have a model 10 and a marlin model 60 as basic supplies.

                    Well, K frames are just about right for everyone. But, I managed to hang on to one J frame during aperiod of hard times. i just couldn't giver it up.

                    Model 60, .38 spl. Pachys on it. Have original grips. Killed a javelina in the yard with this little pistola.



                    Or how about a good N frame. 629, 4" .44 mag. Killed a deer withthis one...well back when I could still see the sights.

                        I've been acquiring old S&W revolvers for years. I own several dozen now. They represent the best of American craftsmanship.
