    SPF BEAUTIFUL EARLY 70's MADE SMITH AND WESSON MODEL 37, MUST SEE!!!

    Make:
    Smith and Wesson
    Model:
    Model 37 (or pre-37, as it was made before they started marking the cranes with model numbers)
    Caliber:
    38 Special
    Location (city or county):
    San Clemente/Oceanside (Orange/San Diego Counties)
    Price:
    SPF!!!
    Will ship (Y/N):
    Probably not, but for the right deal possibly.
    Other info:
    Howdy Cal-gunners, I am looking to trade a remnant of the golden age of Smith and Wesson's glory, the first air-weight revolver they ever made, the "Chiefs Special". Some Googling of the serial number and markings has placed its birth to 1972 as best as I could tell. It is pre model number marked (doesn't say model 37, a serial search had to be done), has a pinned barrel, and an air-weight frame, but has the upgraded steel cylinder compared to the first couple years composite cylinder that was somewhat suspect. Has a nice tight lock up and crisp Smith Trigger, and while its not a show gun, as the photos reveal it has been very well taken care of. I got it in a trade earlier this year and had intended on carrying it before i realized its age and couldn't put that level of wear on such a gem, so after putting two cylinders through her I cleaned her and put her away in a padded case. I am more of a shooter than a collector however and am looking for something I can take out and not worry so much about.
    Also please note that the photos are before I polished it up with a proper coating of renaissance wax, the finish looks even better now, I will update the photos if have the chance.
    Trades I would be interested in are a broad subject, honestly anything of comparable value that strikes my fancy (+/- deals can be worked out with cash/trades too). All I explicitly lack interest in are odd ball calibers, but there are exceptions to every rule(I have an inexplicable thing for big bore guns), so lets see what you've got!
