FN in MT, what barrel length on the Model 28? Did the 5903's have any Department marking?


NONE of the sidearms from late 70's to present had Agency markings.

All the 28's were four inchers.

MT Helo has an early MHP revolver WITH "Montana Highway Patrol" in script on the backstrap. Forgive me but I don't recall much about it. May even be a Colt.

The Officers Association did the M-66 comm's in 1979. Yet we never carried 66's.


Thanks. That is what I thought. I know the Game Wardens had marked Model 66's.

I have the 5906, 6946, and 5946. The 6946 is used for CCW, GT Dist had a deal, $219. The 5946 is sometimes used for USPSA. The trigger pull feels like 1/2 single action, 1/2 double action. Part of the reason that I bought it is because the RCMP used it.

I have a 5904 that has one of the shortest resets I have encountered. Third gen Smiths are very robust, and there are lots of parts out there, just not from S&W.

Got to shoot my 5943 today and it sure was a learning experience. The trigger is like and unlike the DA/SA 3rd Gen guns. Same feel but a bit longer reset. Took me two mags to get use to it. Over all I am very happy with this.
