My new Smith

You guys are a bunch of peer pressure bad influences!!

Didn't get him down anymore, but it sure is a sweet revolver. Can't wait to get to the range. With all the modern and class 3 toys I've been playing with, it'll be good to get back to my roots. Here's a pic of the 14-3 with my old K15.

I should take a picture with my 6" K22 also. Maybe if we get some sun tomorrow, I'll get some better pics.

Bore and chambers are good. Lock up is great. Single action trigger is about 2 3/4 pounds and as sharp as only a Smith can be. It's got something funky as sometimes the cylinder release does not want to move forward. Probably has some wear and may need a burr stoned down. I'll tear into it eventually when things slow down a bit here.

And I'd like some different grips; I never was a fan of Smith's target grips.

Thanks for twisting my arm on this one, guys...
