S&W 37

Post by steelbuttplate »

My new pocket gun, might be a hip gun sometimes. I like it. The fiber optic on the front shows up good even cloudy and indoors. It kicks like a magnum. that's my last target today at 15 yd.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Something you don't see everyday, a 3 inch J frame. I have a 3 inch model 36. Neat little gun.
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

This 37 found a new home in my pocket. At 1.15 lbs loaded, it is 4.5 oz. heavier than the Beretta 21 A I was carrying, but maybe not as noticeable to me . The 21 A, wearing the green milsurp holster is about like wearing a cell phone .

I had a 21A like that. I liked it, but felt undergunned with it. It was fun to shoot though.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
