with the new snubby lessons modcast up just a short time ago I thought it would be cool to start a new thread.
I was able to pick up a Smith & Wesson 64-2 from GB a few days ago. I was actually looking for a 3” or maybe even just a heavy barrel 4” model 10 when this little guy caught my eye. This is my first 2” K frame and so far I like of like it. I am working on make a holster for it because all I have at the moment are holsters for my 4” guns.
The grips have some nicks and aren’t pretty and there is some small surface rust spots here and there along with some scratches, but I wanted a carry/ shooter so it doesn’t really matter to me.
If I’m reading my 3rd addition Standard Catalog of Smith and Wesson correctly then this little fellow was built in late in 1983. It’s still nice and tight and will hopefully serve me for many years.
I just painted the front sight red, so that my old eyes can actually see it, so hopefully I can find a load that it likes to shoot and start carrying it as my EDC.
My JM Custom Kydex K frame holster is for a 4” gun so I whipped up a leather AIWB holster to use in the meantime.
the picture of it in my waistband was from the original mounting DCC clips that I used. However they wouldn’t hold the gun to my belt after I moved around and then the whole holster would sometimes come out with the gun on my draw. So I put on a belt loop instead.
