5-shots of .44 Magnum in a very portable L-frame.

 

If you haven't handled one of these go check one out.  Smith put some effort into this one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It only lacks the proper caliber:  .45ACP

No disrespect to anyone  <dontknow> , I just don't get that.

What a load of crap, guess which firearms manufacturer donated the most money to the NRA last fiscal year.

F S&W in the ear. Do they ship the keys to the internal lock separately, so you don't hurt yourself with the dangerous gun?

I'v handled the 69.   Its a nice gun!

   I almost bought it, but when I went back, to do so, it had already been sold.

  As it turned out, I know the person who bought it.  We spent a pleasant day at the range.  Shooting everything from 44Russian cowboy loads to full 44 mag loads.

  My wife had a new shooter with her, ans she wanted to try it.   Said it was pretty nice, with the cowboy loads, and fun with the 44 specials.

     I ahd her double ear plug ( plugs and muffs) for the Mag loads.   She didn't much care for them, but said she could handle some in an emergency.

   I WILL buy the next one that comes along!

Laaaame... Sig P227 (not that I'm fan-boy bias or anything) over that, any day!

I guess a 1911 or Glock (or any modern firearm) wasn't in the running.

I guess it's cause of the simplicity of operation of the revolver. <dontknow>

<lmao>   Perhaps....because after 5 rounds through that thing, I simply won't reload it.  

[unforgiven]

After 5 ,time to just pull another pistol.I carry the S&W for alot of driving and in and out w/speedloader but would be hard pressed under stress for reload.So now it's 2 pistols 1911 & .38.Want to get to brother Robs level of 6 pistols,but I think I'll need suspenders to hold my fukin pants up. <laughs>

Give the NRA enough money and rubber bands shot from your fingertip will be declared "Handgun Of The Year".

That honor has always been for sale.

As long as S&W make guns with internal lock they can go fly a kite on a no wind day or piss up a rope either suits me....!
