Just beautiful. I'm a dumbass and traded my 36-1 away for no good reason.
Very nice revolver and looks in great shape.

I like J-Frames. I carry Two 442s most days but, rotate once in a while
A new setup for my little snub:
Much more shooter friendly and now it's ready for a possible home defense role.

I like snubbies. My first love is 3” K Frames but snubs can be a hoot to shoot. Amazingly accurate. I’ve added 4-5 since this picture was taken but this as my small snub collection. Mixture of J & K Frames. Reading this thread caused me to put 4 snubs in my range bag to play with tomorrow.OMG! Nice collection!
I have a thing for snubs too. Before this little 36-2, I used to own a 686-6 Plus with a 2.5'' barrel, a 649-1 Bodyguard and a SP101 DAO.
The one that caught my eyes most from your collection is probably the little blued J-Frame Square Butt with adjustable sights. Is it a Mod. 34?
Good eye! That is a 34-1. Funny you should mention that one. It is gone now. Sold to a collector friend of mine, but tomorrow it is coming home. I would up picking up a mint 34-1 and since he is a collector and I'm a shooter, we are going to make a trade. He will get the nicer one to collect and I get the other one to shoot. The little 22 Smith Revolvers are a hoot to shoot. I try to keep a 2" and either a 6" or 8 3/8" all the time. The 22 snub is also a great gun to introduce shooting to a kid. No recoil or noise and for some reason, the kids today want to start with a handgun more so than a rifle or shotgun.
Nice. Happy ending story.
I'd love to add a .22L.R. snub in my collection. 2'' S&W 34, 63 and 317 are very very hard to find in my Country and the prices are high for a used one; I don't even mention what the prices for a new 3'' 63 or a new 3'' 317 are. The LCR-22 is probably the way to go for a new 2'' .22L.R. snub but I'm waiting for a the 2'' LCR-22X, because, as I understand, Ruger hasn't already offered it.

This is a lovely revolver. I love when I see a revolver where its original pants. I think the blue and the walnut is a just a dynamite aesthetic combination. I am curious can you carry these around in Italy?
I also love the original wood grips but I can't shoot my 36 with them without hurting my thumb, so I put them apart and went with those Hogue Bantam with I'm familiar of 'cause i had them on the 649 I used to own and I remembere they where perfect to shoot with.
No, I can't carry around in Italy without a specific licence. I can carry in my house and the property around it.
