Finally got what I've always wanted-- an engraved S&W wheelgun. Went to the gun show to browse, and it followed me home.
My Model 60 (J-frame .38 spl)
OK, I kept the carved dragon grips on my model 36 and put some plain pearl grips on the m60.
Looks pretty sweet.
My apologies in advance for the cell phone pic. I promise a better shot of this soon. This S&W NM 66 Combat Magnum was recently completely torn down and re-assembled by me, with an outstanding glass bead refinish by ZR Tactical in Noblesville. The glass bead media was identical to what Smith & Wesson uses. I also had them install the HIVIZ front red sight. I upgraded this with a Wilson Combat mainspring using the 13# trigger return spring, and the trigger is smooth as silk.
Why the refinish on such a new gun? This was bought with the idea of me using it to learn how revolvers work, and that's exactly what I did. After a year+ of shooting and tinkering, I decided it was more than worth the effort to make it look new again.
