Hello all, brand new guy here. A little intro on me is as the username suggests I am an avid fisherman (bass, striper). I am 45 and I have been shooting for real for the past 23 years. My first smith revolver was a model 10, that I no longer have. I "graduated" to a model 15 shortly thereafter. Since then if I have had a revolver with me it has been a S&W. My 640 goes everywhere with me when the Sig 226 .40 is not practical.

I come to you today to date two guns.

The first is the aforementioned model 15 (8K55xxx).

The second gun is what I believe is the precursor to the model 14. It has been in my family for years. It is a 6" adjustable sight K frame. The right side of the barrel is marked '38 S&W special ctg.' the left side is marked 'Smith & Wesson' (K 218xxx).

Thank you very much for your help. I look forward to learning more here on the boards.
