The term "Shopkeeper" is really hot right now due to the new Bearcat Shopkeeper, but it's been bouncing around for a long time, as has the term "Sherrif's Model"...
Generally, I've seen these irrefutably get applied to short barrel models, but other attributes don't seem to be consistent: birdshead or plow handle, ejector or not, dropped hammers or not, etc
Naturally, terms like that were applied organically, and I'm sure no two "Shop Keep's" or Sherrif's in the Old West kept the same exact pistols, even if the short barrel was consistent.
So what do they mean to you?
What makes a "Shopkeeper" a shopkeeper?
What makes a "Sherrif's Model" a Sherrif's Model?
