Here's a completed GB listing for a S&W 65-2.
I thought all 65-2s were pinned and recessed. This one has no pin, but the description says the cylinder is recessed. The 23 pics are pretty worthless in regards to this. None of the model number on the frame, and none of the rear of the cylinder, so there's no visual evidence of it being a 65-2, and no visual evidence of the cylinder being recessed.
I was thinking it might be a 65-3 with the -2 being a typo, but read about the recessed cylinder (which is not on the 65-3), and decided to ask here.
Is there such a thing as a non-pinned, but recessed 65-2?
Edit: Now I think it is recessed. the side view pics show the cylinder very close to the recoil shield. I didn't think to check that before posting.
Edit #2: Now I think it's a 65-2 on account of the big S&W logo on the sideplate, and no small logo under the thumb latch.
