Found a little jewel at the gunshow today
Found this little jewel at the Fort Worth gun show today. First gun show I've been to for a while. S&W Model 36-6, in .38 Spl, SCSW says only 615 of these were made. Didn't get a box, just the gun, and it's been used so I'll continue to use it. Ought to make a dandy little trail gun.
This pic is not mine but it is EXACTLY the same, down to the Hogue grips. I'll get some pics of mine once it quits raining.

right about that time S&W figured out the 357 mag would work in those as well. I have one of the M-30 3" and really like it. LT Frank McGee begged S&W to make 3" M-36s for years . S&W Did, NYPD detectives bought em and their hits went way up...then there was last week...

I too have one in stainless. It's one of my absolute favorite trail guns and I usually carry it when I go out into the woods. Rob made me a very nice inside the waistband holster for it sometime back, which adds to its appeal. Mine has Herrett grips on it instead of the Hogues, though. And I'll confirm that they are extremely accurate - mine is probably the most accurate short barreled handgun of any type I've ever shot. Smith did a good job when it designed and manufactured these.
