S&W is now making more revolvers in there classic line with no lock. I would be over the model 19 if it had the one piece barrel, my 66 has the 2 piece barrel, don’t care much for it.

Uneducated on revolvers, this is the only one I own. Inherited from my father. Please tell me what it is.Beyond the obvious. Anything special? Only thing missing is paper liner. Look at the prices on the parts list.

On my post I forgot to mentioned that this 10-5 was my wife's handgun. My uncle, who was the Superindent of the Small Arms Repair School at Fort Lee, also ran a gun repair business out of his house, and since he was an FFL holder he would order guns for me as long as I could pay for them. Even though I ordered it for me my uncle made my new bride,to her chagrin, write the check to pay for it . It is the only gun she paid for in 44 years of marrige, and she never let me forget it. So since she wrote the check this became her .38 Special that in her younger days she shot often. It was always on the nightstand when I was out of town. She passed away 5 years ago, and this revolver has since been retired to the back of the safe. I doubt I'll ever have the heart to shoot it again.

People are getting all excited about the new "no lock" S&WS. They don't realize that these guns still have two piece barrels, MIM parts and all the other changes that have plagued S&W over the last 20 years or so. These are NOT the classic S&Ws of old.
I collect S&Ws and have a safe plumb full of them. None have the lock and only one has any MIM parts. That's the way I'm gonna keep it. I have absolutely no interest in this no lock junk.

My 327 TRR8 (two piece barrel) will hold with my 27’s and 28’s with no problem. It’s actually a bit more accurate than most of them, truth be told.

And it even has a lock! 😱

The 2 piece barrel design is similar to the old Dan Wesson revolvers in a sense, it puts pressure on the front section plus where it’s in the frame, anybody who shot/owned a Dan Wesson knows how accurate those revolvers were, I just don’t like them on S&W, there first attempt was the model 620, and the very end of the muzzle, the barrel cracked where it screwed down against the shroud. Rather have the regular barrels plus I’m not found of the new rifling they use now, think it called EDC, rather have the old lands and grooves myself.
