    Greetings all,

    I would like to pick up any of the following, in no particular order:

    1) S&W Model 12 Airweight, ideally a 2 or 4" barrel with a round butt
    2) S&W Bodyguard, older models either 38 / 49 / 638 / 649, not the current part plastic thing
    3) S&W 40 / 42 / 640 Centennial
    3) Old .38/44 S&W Heavy or Colt Official Police, preferably well worn for project guns
    4) S&w Terrier / model 32 revolvers in .38 S&w, not special
    5) Taurus 856, particularly a 3" with regular hammer or 2" with factory bobbed hammer, must have the pinned in front sight.

    Thanks,
    Danny

    There was a S&W Model 12 2" at Rich's in Baton Rouge last week. It looked to be in excellent condition. I think I remember the price at $795 ( memory could be fuzzy).

    That does look like a really nice one, maybe too nice for my uses. Appeared to have been carried and shot very little. If it was a round butt I probably would have grabbed it. May go back for it later, who knows. Thanks for the tip.
