Ok, I found your post Okiecruffler, with pictures: Stevens 311 Just like my Uggie but with a screw instead of a button.

Greetings. I have a 311R (short 18 or 19" bbl) and was told it is a old Police riot sxs shotgun. I am awaiting delivery from a GunBroker estate sale auction I won and wanted to know if anyone has a manual they could copy or sell.

What was the turnaround time?

Here is the box from my 37-2:

Brad at DiscountGunDealer.com had 10 coming in a week or so ago and may still have some. Give him a shout. About the stupic lock..., why did they make it so that when the lock spring fails the gun automatically (uh oh, run away fast, an automatic gun!!!) goes into the locked position? Why not...

Without the lock, your chances for a lock related stoppage would be zero.

I've never purchased a Smith & Wesson revolver with an IL and never will. My last two Smtih & Wesson purchases, a 37-2 and a 642-1, were both brand new in box revolvers - both are post-lock; one MIM, one post-MIM.

Contact Brad at DiscountGunDealer.com. He sold me the 642-1 and bobbed hammer post-lock, post-MIM M37-2. He's out of M37-2s, but has 18 or so 642-1s in stock.

Here's my 642-1 post-lock at my dealer awaiting my payment:

From the dealer that sold me a NIB bobbed hammer M37 (eta: DiscountGunDealer.com has 1 M37-2 and 6 642-1s left):: Pictures that he took while awaiting my personal check. I'm talking about a GREAT dealer. Simply beautiful. NIB Smith & Wesson Model 37-2, post-MIM, post-Internal lock:

Thanks guys.

Greetings. This looks like an older 20" bbl. Would a newer Remington 3 shot magazine extension match the bbl at the end (flush), or would there be a gap like in the setup now?
