There was once a time when I didn't own anything made by Smith and Wesson.
Now there's five guns which can be called M&P.
Where did it all go wrong?
And this isn't even the extent of it! This is about all that my workbench will hold for picture taking.
I used to be the "Colt Guy" or the "Glock Guy"... now look at me!

They’re like potato chips, you can’t have just one. I had model 58 which was like a M&P but in .41 mag. Had to sell it, but man I had a lot fun with it.

Heh...I started a long time ago with a 5906. Now, I have a 29 (8 3/8" 44 mag), 28 (6" 357), 65 (4" 357, former cop gun), 38 (2" 38, hammerless "Bodyguard", same gun that Rico Tubbs had in Miami Vice). HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? And now I want a model 10.
ReplyDeleteStarted with an M&P 9C, which is still my daily carry, but added a 686 for nostalgia... golly that thing is fun to shoot.
ReplyDeleteI probably have one of the oldest S&Ws of anyone on here... Model 1 1/2 Single Action Revolver (aka 1 1/2 Centerfire) in .32 S&W. It is a few years older than the First Model Double Action in .44 Russian that I have... The only other S&W in the household is the wife's 5906. Come to think of it, I own the same number of Colts... An New Army & Navy Revolver 1895 in .38 Long Colt, a Police Positive Special in .38 Spl and an Anaconda in .44 Mag. Maybe ironically most people would probably consider me more of a "Glock Guy"... But I only actually have two Glocks... a 17 in 9x19 and a 22 in .40 S&W, both of which I've had since the early 1990s. However I have a bunch of "Glock Compatibles" built with Polymer 80 and 80% Arms frames.
ReplyDeleteI keep telling you that gun isn't a 1-1/2. It's a .32 *FRAME* 1-1/2. Yes, the distinction matters. Tip-Up guns are just 1-1/2, Top break are either "Top-Break 1-1/2" or "Frame 1-1/2". The "best" description is ".32 Centerfire Single Action" or "Model 1-1/2 Single Action Centerfire".
DeleteThe top-break centerfire guns get more nomenclature applied to reduce confusion with the earlier Rollin-White era tip-up rimfire guns.
