I'm in love!

Today, I fired my first "real" revolver (read: something other than .22lr)

A NICE S&W (not sure of the model) 2"bbl, .357 mag. I fired 50 rounds of LRN WWB ammo out of it, 150 grain. Nice target hammer, target cylinder release, great grips, nice nickel plating. Single action was AMAZING, at less than 2 lbs. The lowest I'd ever fired before was 4.5 lb pull. Double action was amazing as well, very smooth.

My neighbor is the owner of the gun, and he had quite a bit of work done to smooth everything out and get the wonderful target hammer and triggerwork.


Guys, I thought I was an autoloader fan. I was wrong.

Welcome to the complete hangun love affair!

The only problem is, it adds another 100 guns to decide from.

I have, and carry, a S&W 640-1. It is a 2 1/8 inch barreled, 5 shot, 357 Magnum, all stainless, double action only revolver. You probably shot a model 19, it has a fairly wide hammer, was available in nickel plate, and with a 2 1/2 inch barrel. The model 19 was a six shot revolver and, at least the older ones, were noted for having excellent trigger pulls and the pulls could be improved by proper gunsmithing.
