First ever S&W Historical letter

First time I've ever spent the $75 for a letter. Surprised at how much detail they go into.

....and THAT is HOW, and the way, any factory letter should be,,,,glad Roy is still around and doing the fine job he has been, I've known Mr Jinks since I got in the gun business in the late 60's...would love to know, learn 5% of what he has forgotten............. 8) :roll: :wink:

(nice .44 HE by the way........)

$298.72 in today's money. Thats a fine gun. I have a similar HD I had found a barrel for in .44 special and had it converted back in the late 1980`s. S&W is cheaper than colts to letter. That may be a SW lawman's gun. They loved that model back then. I must like 44 specials. I have accumulated seven of them. Four various smiths, two colt saa`s and a ruger.

Thanks Dan ...... the pics make the gun look a little better than is actually is. Of course, it is 90 years old now. Clearly it's been re-nickeled at some point and there's a few hiccups and bruises on it. Mechanically it's in great shape though.

They'd better go into detail for $75! I always love when my s&W letters arrive, kinda like Xmas but the prices of the letters themselves seem to be increasing like postage. Roy's letters are in high demand

Nice gun and better details than I recieved on the letters from SW I have ordered.

Very nice. I just received my first letter from S&W myself on a Pre-War 22/32 Kit Gun I found. I was also surprised at the detail, and how fast they turned it around. I had the letter within two weeks of mailing the request.
