The *upside* of the SCSW and similar books
If you're like me, you will literally see things you never knew existed.
For example, the 3rd Edition of the SCSW shows a small photograph of a post-war, 5-inch .38/44 Outdoorsman with an *alloy frame* and *nickel finish*. 
According to the accompanying story, it was called the 'Light Heavy Duty' (even though it has adjustable sights).
I suppose if you can believe the story/caption, the picture sometimes says enough: I would *love* to have that gun...
