Smith & Wesson Model 19-5

Dated June 1984, we have a fairly rare Smith & Wesson Model 19-5 with a 6 inch Red Ramp front sight barrel. Screw partridge sights! It's also got the target hammer and trigger, and the action is smooth as can be. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...3/Handguns.png I don't think you guys have seen my other ones, so there's the 19 with my 5906 Novak and my Springfield Armory GI 1911A1 with Hogue grips and hex screws. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2.../Handguns2.png Another shot of 'em. http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k2...19-5Sights.png The sight picture for the 19. Red Ramp and white outline, I love it. What do you guys think? |
Beautiful pieces. Don't really see the point in hex screws though, they just seem to make it harder to find a tool to take the grips off.
I've got a Smith & Wesson Model 14-3 Masterpiece with a similair target trigger and nice adjustable sights and I love it. |
They actually started making the Model 14 again in the classic line, but an older model is much better.
I got the Hex screws when I rotted off the parkerizing with my grubby hands, so I could keep the nasty looking screws off the gun. Now they are refinished and original to the gun, and I don't want to damage or strip them, so I have a cheap pair of hex screws to take off and put on whenever I feel like it, and it came with the tool, so I'm good. I take the grips off after every shooting to oil the sides and front strap too, so yeah. |
That Model 19 really looks nice. Though what's with the coloring on the hammer? I've seen other Model 19s with that style hammer, but not that color, I don't think.

It's case hardening/case color, and it's normal on Smith & Wesson revolver small parts. Mostly all of them are case hardened I think.
