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

Pancho Villa,

That old Texas Jock Strap holster may be worth more than the post war Model 10.. Vintage leather is going the way of old S&W stocks.

I've got lots of S&Ws, up until my wife led me down the Kahr path I carried this pre-WWI warrior everyday.

[Iggy]

3" 65?

Yup, 3" Heavy Barrel.
Balance is absolutely perfect.
Carries like a dream.
Trigger is glassy and smooth as butter.
DA so sweet I often don't even shoot SA.

Barth try the Pachmayr American Legends grips on that 65, they make a K frame feel awful good!

I've spent a boatload of money on grips.
Eagle Secret Service, Pachmayr Decelerator and Compac plus various Hogue wood/rubber grips.
Settled on Hogue Bantam for my two J Frames and Special K.
The big N Frame 629 runs Pachmayr Compacs.

Actually really like Compacs a lot on the K.
But it carries better with Bantams.

Man, haven't we all spent a bunch on money on grips and holsters and cases and ammo pouches and......?

[Iggy]

Money on grips??



Nah!!! No problem with holsters either.


BBQ Rig.

Stag, Leather, and a fine 1911, be still my heart. Got a bit of a Tee Pee in my britches.

After seeing such beautiful works of art in steel and leather, this was my only handgun I felt was fit to be included in such company. My '78 era Dan Wesson Pistol Pack, with 8, 6, 4 and 2 inch barrels and shrouds. Having trouble finding a nice holster that converts from 8 down to 2 inches though. I don't know if it's ever been fired. I bought it from the 2nd owner, and he said he never shot it, but didn't know if the original owner had or hadn't. It sure looks unfired, other than what they did at the factory. I haven't shot it, I have a couple other Dan's for shooting. I know I'd be sick if I took it out shooting and put some kind of ding or bad scratch on it.
