S&W 581

A S&W forum member showed his new acquisition a month ago. As luck has it, I found one the next day at an LGS despite those being very rare here in Switzerland and I proceed to buy it for abt $ 750

My distinguished service magnum, made in 1981











The original Magna stocks are way too small for my hands, so I installed some combats I had in reserve.









Range time, indoor 25 m



L frame, fixed sights. Everything you need and nothing you don't

Very nice. What range was the target, and what ammo did you use?
25 meters, it helps to read the caption.
BTW, Happy New Year.
