Took me a long time but wanted a very nice blued S&W Model 19 to add to my collection. All my other Smiths are stainless steel and this one is in a fine deep blue. Took some searching to find this at the price I wanted to pay and it was built in 1975-76 with the pinned barrel and recessed cylinder chambers.

Old Smiths still the best looking revolvers ever made. Congrats Forty

That's a prize. Well done.

Nice.

I have a couple of 19’s

One from my uncle in .357 and my Dad’s old service revolver in .38. Second from the top.

Firearms seems to be like Lay's Potato Chips: it is hard to have just one. Congratulations!

Very nice. I wouldn't mind adding a 2-1/2 inch model 19 to my collection. I've always liked revolvers.

Nice a classic Smith. They don’t get any finer.

Is that a Model 66 3rd one down? I have one with 4 inch Model 66 from 1976 too.

Nice snag, forty.

Yes.

It’s a 66-2. I got that one from my Dad too.

He was a Deputy Sheriff.
