My Entire S&W Revolver Collection - Last Showing

[@troy78]

One of the finest collection of Smith revolvers I’ve ever seen. Great video Swoll.

[@mr2275cur]

Thank you Mr. Troy.

[@joetrankle6141]

Thank you Sir for sharing your collection ! I’ll miss watching & especially learning from your videos. The model 686-4 & model 57 would fit me just fine. In my opinion the N frame revolver are what revolvers are suppose to look like & got me hooked back in the 70’s ! I have a few Colts but the S&W’s have always been my firearms of choice. I’ll be looking forward when the ones I’m looking at will come up for sale & hopefully I can say “ this one belonged to Big Swoll !” Thank you & good luck Sir.

[@mr2275cur]

Thank you Sir. I hope you get the ones you want and say that too. LOL... I'm thinking seriously about buying a new Python while I sell-down my collection. I won't keep it or course, but just to shoot it for a while.

I am sad to see you closing this chapter in your life. I have been a subscriber for several years and have really enjoyed every video of your gorgeous Smith's. Your revolvers have inspired me to acquire and accumulate a fairly nice collection myself, although not as quite as large in scale. I sincerely hope as this door closes, another will open for you . I wish you the best sir.

[@thomastidewater]

I'm just starting my S&W revolver collection... a blue 586-1 in 8-3/8" with adjustable front and rear target sights... never fired and I got it for free! A 60 in 3" stainless... never fired, a 686 Plus Deluxe in 3" stainless... never fired. Gonna have to shoot them all some day... nah. Tomorrow I pick up a 637 Performance Center... I'll change that one to the Altamont Altai Super Rosewood grips (IMHO, the Altai grip models by Altamont are by far the best, prettiest, and most comfortable grips for the J and K/L round frame Smiths), then I'll probably never fire that one either!

[@mr2275cur]

Sounds like you're off to a great start. I'm not sure why you never plan on firing them though. Altamont grips and stocks are really well made, fit great, reasonably priced, and are comfortable in the hand. They are a little thin for my liking, butt still great nonetheless.

My dad also used to have a 6 inch 686 for a long time. That and his 629 classic with full lug 8 3/8" barrel, I was shooting those when I was 10! I was helping reload brass to back then lol. By the time I could drive I had been shooting for over half a decade. When I was 10 I was loading the magazine on his Colt Gov 1911, loading the mag, racking the slide and shooting it as fast as I could pull the trigger lol. He used to have about 60 guns until I was about 30 and he sold most of them off. Those early 686 snubbies are amazing. I'd love to have one with nice magna grips from the 70's with the wide checkering pattern. Ugh, one day.

By far the finest collection of Smith & Wesson revolvers I have ever ever seen. Rather sad this will be the last time, but one must do what one must do. One of my favorites from your collection is that first gun, the Model 66 no dash. I’m partial to the P&R Smith & Wessons. I learned a lot about the features of these particular guns from your videos, so thank you; I appreciate that. I just added a 686+ Deluxe with a 3 inch barrel to my collection. Can’t stop getting it out of the safe just to handle it and dry fire it. Bought it used, but the person who sold it never fired it, so it only had the burn marks from the factory. Got a good deal on it. My second 686+; the other is a 4 inch; but for some odd reason, this one makes me smile.
