Brazilian Contract S&W 45 ACP Revolver

Have your musket clean as a whistle, hatchet scoured, 60 rounds powder and ball and be ready to march at a minute's warning.

S&W Model 19 ,...just because.  8)
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Hello.  I bought the 4" used and it had been refinished in a matte blue.

The snub is actually bright blue but doesn't show up as such in the photo.


I think that the bright blue finish on the 2" gun is more visible in this photo.

Best.

Hello and thanks but I've learned from lessons in the past; I seriously doubt that any of my firearms will be sold at this point.

When I think back (and look in my record book aka "Book of Tears") at the Model 10's, 27's, 58's and so forth that I owned at one time and let get away, I sort of feel like I've been kicked in the head.

Best.

Very good philosophy Stephen. I almost traded one of my best for one that "looked" better, but the test firing revealed a problem, and the deal fell through. I was tickled to death taking home my old wheelgun and learning the same lesson. Having a little cosmetic work done instead.
