I am done with the new Smith and Wesson revolver guns. They have lost the art. If you do buy a smith get one with the barrel sleeve, they routinely over torque the std one piece barrels on their new guns. I no longer feel any pride of ownership, so don't post pictures of my beautiful guns, I prefer dead animals and holes centered in paper, all else is twaddle.

Needless to say, any recommendation of S&W on my part is referring to pre-82 S&W revolvers. Post-81 S&W revolvers will often have defects that require a return to the factory for correction or replacement, or possess undesirable features.
