Have been looking for a couple of Smiths for some time and came across them over the last few weeks...

In 1990 I bought what turned out to be a first year of production 6" Model 57 and have been looking for a 4" to go with it...finally found one in very nice condition but not so perfect as one would not want to shoot it... No box, paperwork and didn't have the original grips but it was 99% and a very smooth action. The Cokes that are now on it were some that came on a 27 that I bought a few years ago...

The other was a long barrel Model 48...found it locally for a decent price with the original numbered to the gun service stocks. I switched them out for a set of target. Shot the gun Saturday and it shot well.... A friend thinks he has an extra Model 17 .22 LR cylinder so it may become a two caliber M48 to go with my 4"....
