In the mood to hang a pic tonight. But saw a trend. I guess I like SS.

I like it. Looks like a few black sheep in there.

I like stainless too. If it’s made in SS, that’s what I buy.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Nice pile of pistolas!
I’m the opposite when it comes to S&W revolvers. I like blued steel and wood. Hard to beat the utility of SS though!

Love 'em all. Especially without Hillary's Hole stinking them up.

Love 'em all. Especially without Hillary's Hole stinking them up. Absolutely. The only one I own with a key hole is my 329PD, and it's been neutralized by a gunsmith, so it doesn't work.

I also like em and also have a Skandium 357 for my backwoods carry.
I've been wanting a 317 22LR 1-7/8" barrel but they no longer offer em.
May have to settle for a 317 Kit Gun 3" w/sights.

I think all my Smiths except a 27-5, a 317 (aluminum) and a 357 PD (scandium) are stainless.

The only Smiths I have are blued and wood, pinned and recessed :-)

I like them all
Guess I first became aware of stainless S&Ws in the early-mid 70s when the local sheriff's guys started carrying model 66s. I've been enamored of the look ever since.
Waiting to take possession of a 4" 629 I got from the classifieds here. It arrived by FedEx last Monday, but work schedule got me to the FFL on Thursday. NICS punched a hole in Thursday and I'll have to wait til Monday again to pick it up.
I get the right grips on it, and a pretty holster, I'll try to post a pic worthy of EdM...

Very nice, Ed. I was expecting to see the glass with a full pour in the first pic and emptying with each subsequent pic!!
