Quality is suffering around here. My already loose attention to detail is getting looser. Not spending as much time per post. Maybe it's just a phase. Maybe it's a brain tumor.

Ok, ok.
Saw an interesting .38. It was an old blue S&W model 10 turn in from some police agency. The gunsmith cut it down and put a ball detent, in frame to lock the yoke in, above that serial number. So a snubbie is made but with a full length ejector rod. Which is nice. One of the flaws of the snubbie. A 2 inch barrel means less shell ejection capability. Addressed with this scheme. A dovetail was cut for the sight, too, and, of course, a trigger tune up. It was nice. The custom work made it a bit expensive for the average snubbie buyer, yet...

The ball detent in the yoke has been a common trick amongst PPC 'smiths for decades. Ron Power credited the late Fred Schmidt as being the first to do it, and Fred passed away in 1986.
