Easy for the Spouse

[lamarw]

Saved my Spouse from having to Christmas shop for yours truly.

I got a good enough deal on this S&W Model 36, no dash, Chief's Special. She may still may have to find another gift for me.

Far from great condition but decent enuff for a shooter or carry gun. Locks up tight and in great mechanical condition.

The Model 36 is one of the wonderful old revolvers S&W has decided to reissue in their Classic Line. This one was less about 1/3 the price of a new one and does not have the key hole.

If I hadn't just bought a couple new Smiths (627 and 638), the 36 and the 10 from their classic line would have been mine, but they are on my list.

Nice find. That would refinish up real good.

It improved somewhat.

I am not a fan of snubs or J-frames but I love the good, honest wear. If you aren't the salty/sweaty type (I mean, as long as the revolver doesn't rust), I wouldn't change a single thing.

All that wear is just part of it's character and any kind of a refinish is just going to get...
...worn.

Nice snag!

Heck, she cleaned up just fine. Nice gun.

Good little carry gun, nice score.

Has some wear to it. How does it lock up?

I have a Model 37 in mint condition, unfied new in the box, that I might carry sometime.
