Description:
HG150957 Revolver in the photo is one of only a few special edition variants of the S&W .38 Centennial Airweight Stainless. This a Talo special number, SKU 150957. Its grips are specially cut dark black gray laminate, somewhat on the order of the classic combat grips of the 1980s. The named model of the revolver itself, of course, comes from its ancestor, the .38 Centennial Airweight introduced in the Company’s Centennial Year of 1952, a popular product descended from the experimental Air Crewman all-aluminum revolver of the early 1950s. Barrel, cylinder and parts are all stainless steel, integrated into a lightweight aluminum alloy frame, hence the 15 ounce light weight empty, down from 20-21 ounces for the steel J frame Smith & Wessons. The Centennial was introduced as a pocket revolver. Since its hammer is completely encased in the frame, there is no possibility of clothing snagging from the hammer spur. Action, then, is double action only; there is no way for the hammer to stand in single action. A distinct advantage to the Centennial is that an alarmed, armed homeowner will not be able to cock the revolver into single action when he or she hears a noise; but a steady deliberate pull of the trigger will fire the revolver with more certainty than any automatic ever produced. Smith & Wesson revolvers all have an internal transfer bar safety to guard against accidental discharge, and this 642-2 variant has the internal hammer lock, supplied with two keys, that puts it in compliance with all state laws, at least for the time being. The special edition grips allow a firm hold with minimal increase of the overall height or size of the small J frame. They are some of the most attractive, good feeling, and positive gripping stocks ever sold for the J Frame. Replacement price on these revolvers is now upwards of $600.00 in our area, if a person can even find one. We're offering the Talo Special 150957, 642-2 Centennial, in the photos however, or one of its identical mates, for only $ 439.00

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
