Stumbled across this custom S&W 64-5 and just had to get it. It started life as a 4", barrel slab sided, cut and recrowned at 3", fiber front sight and a really nice action job. Hitting the range shortly for first rounds fired. It came with wood grips but I put on the Pachmayrs. Don't really enjoy magnums in K frames but .38spl is a whole different ballgame. Have quite a few Gold Dot .38spl +P for sd, lots of 130gr fmj to see how it does. Looking forward to the range time.

Good on you.

I'm too chicken, the minions call it the grandpa touring model.

I don't understand what you are chicken about. Don't you currently ride dirt bikes? How could you be afraid of a quad?

Interesting frankengun. That front sight arrangement looks crazy. I do like the idea of an older 3" S&W.

Been threatening to do this for a while. Picked up a 2020 Tesla Model S P100D Ludicrous. Got it about a week ago and loving it so far.

It is a lovely shade of blue. Saw it myself just today when I picked something up from him from the trading post.

Hunting/utility side of quads. Whenever I talk about getting one the minions raz me about getting old and not being able to hang. Talking about a winch on quad just about makes their heads explode. Sport/racing/jumping is all they care about.

They were aghast when they saw I put a hitch to pull spray trailer on Mrs bo's old Sportrax.

Mostly ride quads these days due to bad knees.

I love riding my MX but no air or deep hard turns that I might have to plant a foot to pivot on. Pretty much leaves trail tours and quads. Suspension on my Blaster much easier on my knees, can ride harder.

Ahhh, now I copy.

I saw one from the same gunsmith built on a 64-3. Mine is considered a ?class b? by the smith, the gun is from 1995. The other one is definitely a higher grade finish though still brushed stainless like mine. I agree with a lot of the S&W guys that a 3? K frame is the ideal personal defense revolver.

Doc, Mrs bo noticed your 64, she is sucker for slab side. Said best looking gun on site in recent history.

Any roast type recommendations? Thanks.



I enjoy all types of coffee. One thing I am picky on is the roast types and additives.
I forgot which company but they put too much oil type of additive to roast on their coffee. Yuk.

I wish I could remember. I left my stash in my locker for my buddy when I left..I will try to get ahold of him and see if he has been back to that control room.

Tell her thanks very much! I got a bit more info from the gunsmith this morning. He gets his revolvers from a distributor that deals with police trade ins which this one is. There appears to be an inventory or rack number inscribed on the left grip frame. Unfortunately he didn’t know what dept it came from. Please let her know it shoots every bit as good as it looks too!
