What is your favorite Smith & Wesson revolver?

[NAA]

S&W Model 57 6" with MD Charlton 'Distinguished Tune"....

 

[SandRoad]

I would have to say a 686 with 3" barrel and rubber finger grips (yep it is a CS-1). It is heavy enough that 357 Mag loads are comfortable and fun to shoot.

My 4inch 19 because it was my first handgun in those long ago days before the advent of politico retardus and their introduction of the Firearms Act.

 

[BCRider]

Lessee... I've shot a .22 Model 34 with 4 inch barrel, two different 4" Model 19's with different grips, a model 19 6", a Model 29 8", a .460Mag and a 500Mag.

I'd have to say that I can't pick just one because it wouldn't be fair to the rest. I really liked them all for different reasons. Not a big fan of Pachmeyer grips though. The Hogues are much nicer for my hand.

I agree. I looked at and fondled my S&W revolvers when I first read this thread and couldn't decide so I didn't post. FWIW, I prefer Pachmayr over Hogue grips/stocks.

I'll have to say the Model 10 I carry at work. Old, ugly, and heavier than hell after 10 hours riding on my hip, but it RUNS. My second favorite is the Model 10 I have at home... 4.3" pencil barrel. Now I just need a 4.25" HEAVY for it and I'm golden

Gotta be a K-frame. I have 2, a model 12 Airweight snubby and a 17-3.

I am looking for a 2.5" M19 round butt with the original grips.

Favorite one of the 44 bunch is this ``old`` 4 inch Model 29. Has served me well for 20+ years...(sorry for the pic quality)

Man this is one hard question for me i love all my Smiths all from a .22 right up to my 455 HE 2nd Model. My oldest one will 102 years next month my newest would be 18 years old .The two i shoot the most are my 14-2 a 1965 model and my 29-2 with a 8 3/8" er 1980 model thats a real tack driver at 75 yards.I guess these would be my favorite ones since they get the most range time.

My 3" 629

X2 and I made mention of it earlier. Same as mine, different grips.

 

[brownie]

I do a lot of target shooting with S&W revolvers and my 625 with 5'' barrel is my favorite.

 

[Westicle]

I love the "N" frames, the 626 in 45 auto would be my favorite.... moonclips and lots of fun.

 

[Boomer]

Too bad S&W did away with the diamond around the grip screw. To my eye that gave the stocks a classy look that has since been lost.

 

[OneBarfly]

My 627 Model of 1989 trigger is smooth like budda. 2nd would be my 624 magnaported snubby.

 

[Brutus]

I have a few Smiths that could be my first pick: 1990 made 629 5" DX Classic, beautiful sights, crisp trigger, rounded grip, nice wood panels.
Although I have a Brazilian M1937 45 ACP, with a case of uglies, man it can shoot well on a good day. A 'proper' J-frame will never be mine, but the big'ole N-frames, sure try hard to please this amateur shooter!

 

[RHall]

Here's mine.

It is a toss up between my 4" 586-1 and my 2-1/2" model 19-3.
