I`ve been checking out all of the porn pics on this site and just had to add one of my own! Top two are vintage `60`s Pythons, second two are Diamondbacks, one 38 & one 22, the next two are Diamondbacks in 38 SPL, and the bottom one is a `60`s Cobra, new in box, in 32 New Police. I like porn, too! ;D

Very nice, Dan.

Welcome Dan, very sweet "snake" porn.
All of us here really have a thing for gun porn. Old, new, fat ones, skinny ones, makes no difference. ::)
How did you get a 60's Cobra NIB?
-
Nice collection !

By being old enough to buy it in the 60's ? ;D
-
Nope! Believe it or not, I bought it off the internet! Guy claimed in the listing that it was NIB, which the pictures made me believe it was true, but pics can be misleading. Can`t remember exactly what I paid for it, but I think it was around $400. When I picked it up from my dealer, I was pleasantly surprised. The cylinder hadn`t even been turned!
It actually cost me money in the long run, as I wound up buying a slightly used Police Positive in the same caliber so I`d have one to shoot!

Nice pictures. How do they shoot?
I am an S&W revolver fan of long standing, but I am getting bit by a need for a Colt revolver if I can find the right one.

If you love your Smith`s, NEVER shoot a Python! The older Diamondbacks are usually about as sweet, too!

Somehow, "ooooo's and ahhhh's" just don't seem 'enough' here..........but, OOOOOOOO.....AHHHHHHHHHH.
Very nice collection.
And welcome to the pen. ;)

Here`s a small amount of S&W porn for Billstryker. I`ve always been a Colt fan, but years ago, after marrying my True Love, I bought her a S&W model 60. It was the only Smith wheel gun in the house for 32 years.
I got bit by the nostalgia bug last year and remembered a Smith model 31 that a long dead friend had. It fit in my hand well and was a hoot to shoot. I hit the local gun show and, lo and behold, I found one! Great shape, and reasonably priced. Whipped out the wallet and stuffed the gun in my pocket. Made it all the way to the other side of the show when, shazam!
Here sits another S&W I`ve always been interested in. A sweet little model 34! You could tell that it had been fired, but judging by the cylinder grove, it sure wasn`t much.
The gentleman had a price of $375 on it, but my wallet was thin after the first purchase, and besides, I like to haggle. Wound up paying $325 and got a nice Safari holster with it.
After I bought it, the guy gave me the history on the gun. It came out of an estate of a little old lady in Northern Michigan. She would strap it on twice a week to go out to fill the bird feeders. She had a lot of bears that would come up in her backyard, so if one got too close, she`d pop a round off into the air to scare `em!

One bullet Dan,
Why not shoot a Python or a Diamond back?
I shot a Python before I bought my Combat Magnum, aka M19, and opted for the S&W. My buddy Art has a Python, shot it often -- still an S&W fan. Art says he likes my S&Ws as well. I have fired a Diamondback and liked it as well as a Python. They are both nice guns.
As I said earlier I am looking for the "right" Colt. I may find the "right" Ruger or something else along the way.
That's what makes this sport fun.
-
Wow :o on the porn.
-
It does take a while to get used to a Smith cylinder turning "the wrong way"! But for half the price, I can`t blame anyone that buys a S&W. It`s a fine weapon. Fine machining, fit and function.
You actually preferred the DA trigger pull of a Smith over a Python? With the hammer pulled back, I can`t find a bit of difference. DA is a whole other story. I have shot some Smiths that had been tuned that were a pleasure to handle.
All things equal, if I can pull the trigger and it goes bang and hits what I`m aiming for, I LIKE IT!
-
Dang i forgot my snake loads. ;D

OneBulletDan,
The S&W DA trigger pull was better than the Colt's. In 1963 I was looking for a fighting handgun and that meant DA. I think the Python SA pull is great, as is the SA pull on my S&W. Back in '63 I think the Combat Magnum, aka M19, was the best choice. Perhaps the overall best .357 at the time was the S&W 357 Magnum, what we now call the M27. The Python was then a very nice choice as well. But the Combat Magnum was the lightest of the three. Costs were not much of a consideration at the time. A Python MSRP was $125, the M27 was $120, and the M19 was $110. The one I chose was to be my graduation/commissioning present. But, lucky me, I had the opportunity to shoot all three of the revolvers we are talking about and some really nice Colt and S&W target revolvers as well before I made my choice.
I liked the Army issued M1911A1 at the time and used an AMU worked over one for competition and twice carried an issue M1911A1 on patrol in Vietnam where I was in an infantry role. But, I liked the .357 better for everyday wear -- I thought the .357 would reach out more and would be more reliable. If I knew I was going to get into a big fire fight, I usually left the pistols at home and just carried my M2 carbine with even more extra ammo for it. In the end I guess I let the M2 carbine do the talking and never did shoot a pistol or revolver at anyone, thank goodness.

Those are sweet thanks for the pic
