Love the old S&W and Colt boxes. That's a whole topic unto itself.
Nice find. Hopefully you will shoot it some to enjoy those nice actions!

I will shoot it, but probably not a lot. Smith just released the model 10 classics without the internal lock so I think I might get one of those to beat on instead.

I love these old Smiths. I was in the armory on base one time and noticed they had clearing instructions for revolvers. I asked the MP why and he showed me a really nice looking Model 10 with US Air Force stamped on the barrel. I’d love to get my hands on one of those.

I recently bought a "vintage" K-frame. It's model 12-2 with a 2 inch barrel.
After not having a K-frame for many years, the model 12 felt like it was made for my hand...

Sort of related, I was an armorer in the USMC and was stationed on Camp Foster in 2008. The Col. of our unit pulled strings to keep a 1911 in the armory that was his own issued weapon. This was left over somehow after the switch to the M9 in the 80s
I spent many an hour carrying that 1911 inside the armory

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.
Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.
This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
