That is nice. Very, very nice!

[Winger Ed.]

As Darth Vader would say,,,,, "Impressive".

[tazman]

I have never seen that finish on a S&W revolver before. Outstanding.

[Bazoo]

Very nice. Is that from the heritage line they had a while back?

[Don Purcell]

Oh my (Sulu from Star Trek)

[lefty o]

i am absolutely not a smith fan, but thats a nice looking revolver.

Also Captain Kirk's last words(Star Trek: Generations)

I'd shoot it! I'm absolutely a Smith fan.... (-:}

Yes. Performance center firearm distributed by Lew Horton in 2001.

[Hrfunk]

I passed on a .45 ACP like that a few months ago. It's been nagging me in my memory to the point that I won't pass if I ever see another one! Nice revolver!

[boatswainsmate]

Beautiful case hardening.

[Bigslug]

As Darth Vader would say,,,,, "Impressive".

As Bill & Ted would say, "DUUUUUUUUDE!"

[Eddie Southgate]

Beautiful . I want the 24 in the same series .

[murf205]

As a devoted S&W addict, I am drooling! Pour you a few boolits and set that 45 in motion! You will never regret buying that piece of art. I am still wondering why in h*** I didn't buy an excellent 1917 U.S. 45 for $600 out the door. Still kicking myself!!

[Walks]

Boy Howdy, that's purdy.

Congrats.

[tazman]

How many different models did S&W do that case hardened finish to?

[boatswainsmate]

How many different models did S&W do that case hardened finish to?

Not sure. I'm just a 45 colt nut. I Know I've seen them in 44 Special, 45 ACP and 38 Special.

[tazman]

Now that I know they are out there in 38 special, I will have to keep an eye out for one.
Unlikely I will be able to afford it, but I would love to have one.

[45workhorse]

I need a cold shower and a cigarette after eying that beauty !

Yep!!!

[gnostic]

Wow, that's gorgeous!!!!!

[Texas by God]

There was some reason that S&Ws were never case hardened before those special issue models. I recall an article but not the details- maybe steel composition compatibility or some such. They are certainly gorgeous.

[TheGrimReaper]

I like it even with overly long barrel!!!!

[Sixgunner john]

If I remember right Smith only made 150 each of those I’ve got a 44 spl and just don’t have the heart to shoot it - but I’m close. Been in the safe for 18-20 years now
