Got my Model 65 3" from my sister. Here is one just like it, if the photo works. Just when I learn to use photobucket, they change it. Well, not JUST like it, mine has to old style cylinder latch.

    I hate you.

    I mean that with the greatest respect. But I want a 3" Model 65 or 13.
    Overkill is underrated.

    It was a gift from Athens Police Department when I retired from there. It was my issue revolver, but I hardly shot it, since I carried my personal 1911.

    Nice revolver. I inherited an older model 13 with 4" bbl that belonged to my old man. Top pic, nickel plated recessed cylinder charge holes.

    does that select fire CETME toting Sheriff107 have any more of those to surplus out. Will travel. Drop some boot grips on those and they are the handiest .357 ever......

    I didn't get it from my retirement from the S.O. Got a H&K P7 from him. I got the Smith from my retirement from Athens PD, which was about 26 years ago.

    Gene,

    Congratulations on the recovery! Like so many others have said, I'd love to have one.
    Celebrate life, moment by moment. I plan to enjoy what time I have left, and that means MORE GUNS!
