I've got two, a 10FP .308 and a 112BVSS .30-06. They're both tack drivers at 600 yards. I wouldn't have anything else.

"I bought a brand new S&W 351pd, at 5 yds it was high and right for all 8. I bought an old 10-4 3" S&W from 1962, all 6 in 3/4" group at the 7yd line I gave the new one away. Nuff said."

Wow, I really got ripped off then, since my 351 PD only holds 7 rounds!
S&W revolvers are my favorite type of firearm, and I pretty much like all types of guns. I have examples of S&W's from every decade from the '30's to the present. I specifically bought the 351 because I'm also a contrarian; I got tired of people complaining about the lock, two-piece barrels, MIM parts, and fiber optic front sight, so I bought one for myself. It's a fine gun in every respect, shoots great.

Welcome Edge.

**Change is inevitable. Nothing remains the same**
True. Very true. However, that change can be bad OR good.Example:
Remington installed locks - bad change
Remington recently removed locks - good change
Short of a Fed. reg., the customers largely influence change. Supply and demand is the game , money is the prize. Money,we've got it, they want it.
A note on the Fed. regs., a locking device is reqd. but, NOT an internal lock.

OutAtTheEdge:
Well actually your guns are too new...
Some mine go back into the last decades of the 19th century, and if you take 'um apart and do a little look'in it quickly becomes clear that things started going down hill shortly after 1910.
Well anyway, I'm glad you don't let the lock upset you, but I did notice you seem to prefer and buy earlier models. Frankly, I do the same. So long as those older guns are available and affordable I don't think the lock will bother me either...
