NOW GO THE THE BELT SECTION AND MAKE YOURSELF A NEW BELT... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBOGO Report post Posted February 4, 2010 I see nothing to laugh at, I think you are probably your own worst critic. Looks good from here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
303brit Report post Posted February 4, 2010 Great work, I think they look very nice. +1 on the belt , a double thick belt makes all the diffrence in carry. they can be a PITA to hand stitch though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MBOGO Report post Posted February 6, 2010 Forgot to ask, what model is that N frame? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregintenn Report post Posted February 6, 2010 Forgot to ask, what model is that N frame? It's a hack job. It started out as a 455 British. It was rechambered for 45 Colt, the barrel cut and recessed crowned to 4", and different sights added. I wash it was original for value purposes, but I like it because it shoots great.

MBOGO Report post Posted February 6, 2010 If it was minty original, you probably wouldn't enjoy it as much. Sounds like a great shooter from here. Is it a triple lock, or second model? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregintenn Report post Posted February 6, 2010 Second model. I wish it was a triple lock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBOGO Report post Posted February 6, 2010 Thats still a nice shooter, it perked me up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregintenn Report post Posted February 6, 2010 Thanks. I like it. I think I paid $250 for it at a show a few years back. I like the old Smiths, but shy away from the prices. I'd love to buy a bunch of shooter grades, but all of them I find have mint prices on them. http://smith-wessonforum.com/forum.php You ever go here? There are things in there that will really make your mouth water! The J frame belongs to my wife. It is a flat latch model 37. She has the correct grips, but carries it, and likes the rubbers better. It's a pretty nice revolver. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBOGO Report post Posted February 6, 2010 I love old Smiths, but not the prices for the models I like (N frames). I keep my eyes open for a holster worn model 28, I saw some a few years ago, shouldn't have passed on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
