Smith & Wesson Connoisseur's, Anyone Else?

I have been shooting S&W’s most of my life. My wonderful wife and I started collecting, we both carry them. The 36 is my daily, the EZ .380 is hers. We also acquired a M&P AR 15 Sport II. The lone sheep is my FNX-9, my duty for armed work. Great kids!

My only S&Ws are my MP-15, similar to yours, and my tac pens. I love the brand, though. They know I’m a sucker for advertising; they’re always sending me ads for things I don’t need but must buy anyway.

I have a full size 9mm m&p and a 9 mm shield 2.0

My only S&W is a 1942 Victory model revolver. I have always found S&W to have too many moving parts to complete the desired mission . That being said would not turn down a S&W M-1917 in 45ACP with all the military markings.

My main carry is a Sig, but I do have a little S&W Model 642 that I love.

Did someone say Smith & Wesson? I have a few.

Here are a passel of S&W Model 1’s from my collection. These are all early Model 1’s, with the oldest being at the front left.

It was a Friday night, in a movie theatre on Menaul Blvd, Montgomery Plaza. In Albuquerque NM, first date with a young woman I wanted to go out with in H.S. I remember that movie, and she and I are still friends today. Thanks for the memories, and very special find.

Holy Crap! Very sweet… I am always amazed at how small they are, along with the fighting history behind them. Especially the ever swirling myth whether Wyatt Earp used a S&W or a Colt at the OK Corral.

The Model 1 is indeed a tiny gun. A miracle they were in such demand for the 25 years they were manufactured!

Looks pretty pristine from that shot.

I’m fond of a M-640 no dash for EDC and a M-41 for target shooting fun

A Bodyguard, a version 1.0 Shield 9mm, a 380 Shield EZ, and an M&P 9c, which was the very first semi-auto I purchased, back in 2015. Currently got my eyes on a Shield 9mm EZ. The new Shield Plus has my attention also, but at 74, I’m noticing just a little reduced hand strength. The 380 EZ is a joy, and has become my EDC here in NW Arkansas. The 9mm EZ would be just for the fun of adding to the collection, not because I feel the 380 is inadequate, Far from it. The 9EZ would be just easier to load and rack.

Really like every one of them. The right gun for the right purpose, and all at prices that don’t go crazy.
