Talking My Christmas Present!

Got this from my Father In Law for Christmas! and its 1981 vintage and unfired to boot! with box and papers. P.S. Tree Doc , This is the Airweight I thought I was getting but I had the model # wrong it wasnt a 638. after all. I am very happy with what I got though!

Thumbs up Keeper it is!

Thanks Billy D! , I am going to have to get a set of Hogue Monogrips with the fingergrooves in them for it ,if I am going to shoot it much. I have big hands and those stock wood grips are awfully small!

eagle makes a great set of grips also. nice woods and high quality.

remember the firearm was meant to be a hideaway, thats why the small grips.

i've got small hands and 28 knuckles of arthritis and i like larger grips also.

Ahhhhhh DANG! That's SWEET! '81 vintage and unfired? .....oooooooh, I'd be hardpressed not to vacuum seal that sucker and store it in my safe!

I too prefer the sticky Hogue roundbutt grip. That's what I have on my 638.
