only own 2 revolvers currently....A S&W Model 19-3 that my Dad bought in the late '60s and a Model 67 given to me by a friend. He said he purchased it in the mid '80s and only fired half a box out of it. I have the other half of the box.
Dad was chief of police in our small rural town and that Model 19 was his duty weapon for many years. It was shot a lot for hunting, practice and qualifications. It went out of time back in the early '90s so he sent it back to S&W With a request on department letterhead to fix it as soon as possible. They put it through the custom shop.....New cylinder and crane, all new springs, an action job and a reblue. He had it back in 2 weeks and they even refunded his shipping.
Dad also had a Colt Python...This 19 is every bit as crisp and clean on the single and double action firing sequences as that Python. Also the most accurate revolver I have ever had the pleasure to fire.
