Not too common S&W model 547; 9mm with unique extractor system. “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz This life is a drill. It is only a drill. If it had been a real life, you would have been given instructions about where to go and what to do. | |||

So many pretty shiny things. Keep them coming. I don't usually like wheel guns or own one, but wow some of these are absolutely gorgeous. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

S&W Model 19 3", only a few were made for the CA DOJ, back in the day. (I'm 100% sure I put back the grip screw.) ninety nine percent (99%) of all the model 19 you see are the 4" or 2.5" bbl. variety. | |||

Yes, one of Ruger's best, as far as I'm concerned. Pic is mine, but the gun now belongs to another member. Q | |||

That is nice, a handy no-frills revolver in 9mm! Loaded with hot 9mm, would make a nice SD gun for some. Does the extractor work reliably? | |||

I never gave the gun a heavy workout, but the extractors consist of leaf springs that press into the extractor grooves and push the cartridges out. In my limited shooting I never experienced any problems and one article I read at the time said that S&W claimed they would shear through the case rim before breaking. Because the gun wasn’t designed to use moon clips, conventional speedloaders could be used, and I even have a couple that were designed for the revolver. The 547 had some unusual features such as beryllium copper hammer pivot pin and extractor star (the color in the photo is correct). As may be noted, the hammer is somewhat bobbed, and that was reportedly because there was a tendency for the hammer to kick back during recoil. The firing pin is frame mounted unlike the hammer mounted firing pins of the era and there’s a separate “plunger” in the frame under the firing pin that leaves a distinctive mark on the case heads. I never saw an explanation of its purpose, but I suspect it’s to help prevent the cases from backing out and tying up the cylinder. “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz This life is a drill.

Thanks sigfreund, really interesting. So I located a link for those who may be interested in a little history of this particular gun. http://www.vintagepistols.com/..._report_s&w_547.html | |||

I don't have anything weird. And probably the rarest would be a M&P Pro with custom Barsto barrels done up by Apex, but now that Apex is doing their own barrels it doesn't stick out too much. But the most expensive that is easy, my open guns are the most expensive. The prices, well lets just say they are very expensive.
