Well, I don't qualify as an expert on the level of the Old Fuff or Jim K...I'm not a young whipper-snapper, but my experience only goes back 50 years or so. And my enthusiastic participation only goes back 30 or so.

But of all the S&W revolvers I have owned, (probably 25 or so, pretty equally divided between 1970-1982 and 1996-present) there is no contest. I have divested myself of all the new ones but for one...and recently added a second.

So, as Bob Wright said...I'm thinking.
