[QUOTE="ldp4570, post: 2951587, member: 5168"] Its not that I've owned a lot of J-frames, its just that I don't flip that many. I tend to keep most of what I've bought. One must remember there are more than just J-frames from S&W. Before the J-frame there was the Lady-Smith and after that the I-frame, and then the Pre J-frame. The Lady-Smith was a very small framed .22 short an LongRifle chambered revolver. The I-framed gun was also chambered in .32 Short an Long cartridge as well as all the non-magnumed .22 cartridges. Then came the Pre J-framed guns for the .38 Short, and towards its end the .38 Special, it was also chambered in .32 Long too. After a redesign of the frame we have no the J-framed guns. Of course prior to all these mentioned we had all the top-break/bottom breaked revolvers starting in .22Short up to .38Short. The last of these was the .38 Perfected which brought about the solid frame an the new side latch which would be incorporated into all the new solid frame guns. [/QUOTE]
