In a continuing effort to educate and /or remind my employees of the various models of S&Ws, I am seeking one of these out.
I know that they are dated and of limited scope, BUT with that ring and the words "M&P" & "Bodyguard" & have the majority of the current S&W line covered.

I had one posted FS on the S&W board but it was deleted for not following the prescribed groupthink.

I may, Rob, but if I do it's in deep storage. Here is the breakdown, if it helps:
The first two digits indicate the caliber:
39= 9mm
59= 9mm
69= 9mm
10= 10mm
40= .40 S&W
45= .45 ACP
35= .356 TSW (rare)
The third digit indicates the model type:
0= standard model
1= compact
2= standard with decocking lever
3= compact with decocking lever
4= standard with double action only
5= compact with double action only
6= nonstandard barrel length
7= nonstandard barrel length with decocking lever
8= nonstandard barrel length with double action only
The fourth digit indicates material type:
3= aluminum frame with stainless steel slide
4= aluminum frame with carbon steel slide
5= carbon steel frame and slide
6= stainless frame and slide
7= stainless steel frame with carbon steel slide
I know that doesn't help with specific barrel lengths. I have an extra copy of the Supica/Nahas S&W book that has more info that I'll be happy to give you, if you like.

I am quite familiar with the S&W codes:-) I used to right em all out during math class as a drill to keep from dying of boredom.
I wanted the visual aid for my employees.
I will use your list to build my own all inclusive list ton post in the shop.
I have that book myself thanks for your offer and assistance.

As a member over there, may I respectfully ask what is "aggravating" about the S&W Forum? Dave Condescension and arrogance from several of the members. Admittedly, most have been nice, but a couple of guys from whom I've tried to buy guns have been a-holes. I still check it out, I just don't hang out there like I do here. I recognize that as big as that board is, it won't be like "home" - so I spend more time here. |
