Smith and Wesson Reintroduces The Model 19!

[SeriousStudent]

I have a 4" and a 2.5" Model 19, both with pinned and recessed barrels. They are worth hunting for.

And that ungodly safety lock on the side reminds me of someone painting the Mona Lisa, but with a prison tattoo on her cheek.

I also don't care for frame mounted firing pins, they should be in the hammer where they belong.

My 4" 19-3 with Osage grips I modified.
Not much can beat a well broken in/tuned "K" frame double action.

One of the dumbest firearms things I have done (there have been many) was sell my outstanding 4" P&R 19-3 that had factory target grips, hammer and trigger as I wanted to consolidate to semi-auto, Dumb, just plain dumb!

[Lacos]

Nope. Not with the stupid lock.

I convinced my dad to buy a used 19 to replace his old duty 19 that he sold back in the day when cash was short. I didn't know SW was bringing them back so I even picked up a spare barrel. It will be mine one day.

Mostly because I'm old and cantankerous. I've never broken a hammer nose but have broken several firing pins in the newer frame mounted style through, I presume, lots of dry fire. And those damn tiny ass springs....

Oh well, at least the new ones are easier to replace.

Broke a nose one my 13-2 last year. Luckily my LGS has this kind of stuff in stock and fixed it for me for free!
