I have a Smith & Wesson model 65 - 2 probably from about 1980 it's got an amazing trigger and 4 inch barrel.
What I'm wondering is it's comparison to the model 19.
Specifically does it have the same weakness with the ring around the forcing cone or whatever that can sometimes break with uses of hi power 357? Or is that problem unique to the model 19?
Which are better and why?
I don't care about the adjustable sights on the model 19 because this is not a gun for Target work or hunting my model 65 would be for Cary and just because it looks so nice and has such a sweet trigger
But I may Sell the 65 - 2 to make room for more robust longer barreled hunting revolvers
Perhaps including one of the new Colt 4 and a quarter inch king cobras, plus I already have a 3-inch new model king cobra
