WTB: pre-key S&W Model 36

Post by android »

I inherited a model 60 and love it.

I'd like to get a blued model 36 also if possible.

Let me know what you got. Doesn't have to be perfect condition.

You may also want to look for a mdl 37.
Just a thought.

Cheezit has a good ideal. I know of one that has been a safe queen and they are asking $500. It is not mine nor do I know the person selling it. I just seen it advertised earlier today.

I think that was possibly the best j frame built if you can handle the recoil from a 14oz .38

It can’t be as bad as the recoil from a 13oz .357 magnum. :mrgreen:

That said, if I had to do it all over again (642, 640, M&P340) I’d buy an exposed-hammer model. The "hammerless" models are easy to conceal and draw from concealment, but the lack of a single-action option is noticeable.
