Way back in time, when dinosaurs walked the earth,,,
Way back in time, (1964), when dinosaurs walked the earth,,,
An uncle gave me a S&W revolver for a junior high graduation present.
It was a 6-shot in .38 special that he called a "Police" revolver,,,
I was only 12 at the time but I remember it didn't have a model number on it.
I'm assuming it was a M&P model as it had groove sights.
I only got to fire 100 rounds out of the gun,,,
That's the two boxes of cartridges my uncle gave to me.
The gun mysteriously "disappeared" out of my gun cabinet that summer,,,
Mom and Dad said it had to have been a burglar,,,
But none of my rifles went missing.
I'm pretty certain that Mom and dad just took it and sold it off,,,
They never liked me owning that handgun in the first place,,,
Apparently Uncle Vernon didn't ask for their okay.
Mom denied it fervently,,,
Dad hem-hawed when asked,,,
So I'm certain that's what happened.
Anyways I think that was my first K-frame,,,
I own a Model 67, 18, 15, & 12 now.
