I just picked up my neighbor's 357 mag yesterday. He is an 80+ year old German pro-gun, pro-liberty guy that just can't enjoy the power of the 357 or even the 38 spl. So, he asked me if I could find him a buyer for his Smith. I said ... "Yes! I'll buy it!" Lol...

Anyways, it's an earlier model (dash -1) without the stupid side lock. It's in excellent condition and doesn't look to be shot much (the cylinder lock mark on the cylinder is very light). Has a 6" full underlug barrel with target sites. The trigger is typical Smith revolver smooth and just the right lbs.

Here are a couple of preliminary pics and I will update when I do a range report.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
