New to me Revolver

[tdt91]

This is the revolver I got at the aution a couple weeks ago. I sent an e-mail to S&W asking what it is and history. etc. Anyone want to take a stab.

That's a five screw pre model 10 S&W Miltary and Police in .38spl manufactured between 1905 and 1940?

Dam shotgun Joe, do we need to rename you to something like Popped Collar Shotgun Cowboy Revolver Guru Joe

We shall see how correct you are sir, once S&W responds.

It's a rough guess. I'm probably wrong. Those grips are aftermarket, too. They look to be Farrant grips. Martin Milner used them on Adam-12 on a S&W Model 14.

You're older than me!!! Plus, I am in the middle of watching the 5th season on DVD, so it's fresh in my head.

Very nice Tom!!! I'll give you a $100 for it

how did the Steven shoot after I left? I'm sure Shotgun Joe would love to see it

 

[tdt91]

first shot it didnot eject the hull. I think it was cause I was using the el cheapo Winchesters, they gave me trouble with my 870 a few time so I think thats the prob.
I switched guns after the hull didnt eject and did well with the over/under w/ a to long length of pull for me. 22. obtw, I hit the clay with that thing so it can't be to bad.
Later I wanted to see how it would pattern at about 20 yards out from the trap house. It patterned very well and it even ejected the hull so I think its gunna be ok. I got a feeling that it will do very well in Turkey shoots. I might try to find one this weekend.

He carried a K-38 on the show? They must have had a decent budget.

I'm going up to SLCFSA tomorrow w/ Tzoid. I think I'm going to try it out. Wish me luck.

I saw a Model 10-5 at the New Bern Gun Show today for $259. Didn't have the money.

 

[tdt91]

well I shot my revolver today. It funtions well and accuracy is a s good as to be expected. We were at 7 yards off hand. Still a solid revolver.
