I just picked up an unfired M19-4 not too long ago for a song, and damn is that trigger buttery smooth. I can't get enough of the lines, deep blue finish, and wood grips, though it's so pretty I almost don't want to shoot it!<br /><br />It may be surprising to note that at 25, I'm one of those few "youngsters" that has an affinity for the old wheelguns. I do have a 640 Pro also, and thanks to a days training with Claude Werner, I can run it pretty well. Still, a J-frame is never going to come close to matching the shootability of the K.

I agree that they can be accurate when bolted to a ransom rest I just doubt that I would have one with me if a real defensive scenario broke out.Average Joe's Handgun Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03173747731064233358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31185777.post-45473296541598033872013-09-11T23:15:57.437-05:002013-09-11T23:15:57.437-05:00Great article.

As someone who has been shooting them for over 40 years, I do not find the trigger pull horrible or the accuracy not acceptable. Put one in a ransom rest and you will see how accurate they are. As with all small guns, the accuracy, perceived recoil and trigger control is determined by the shooter. The fact that you mentioned retro looks gives your age away. To us old timers they do not look old. It is like saying a 1911 has a retro look. They have been this way for a very long time and are still made to look the same today. Just like the HiPower and 1911. Nothing retro about them. Great review nonetheless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31185777.post-58816769706136369032013-09-11T11:19:41.778-05:002013-09-11T11:19:41.778-05:00Joe

If you're going to wear a belt holster the six-shot Smith is just as easy to conceal. I had a Model 12 Airweight two inch back in the day. It was actually lighter than my ever present M49. It shot great but it was a square butt so I let it move on. As with most of my gun trades, I regret its departure...Eclectic Breakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09767654149969639962noreply@blogger.com
