So, I get every other Friday off from work and I've been going to gun stores on those Friday mornings. Scratch my recent post about 1911. Every time I handle a revolver it just feels right. To make a long story short, I handled Rugers, Colts, and S&Ws, and when you combine price, fit/finish, and trigger pull, the S&W 19 and 686 rise above the others (for me). I'll be honest the 19 just speaks to me. Now I know there are purists who detest non-pinned barrels, key lock holes, etc. but I can live with all that. Main questions I have for y'all are;
Cleaning; how often should one remove the side plate to clean the guts? I'm not opposed to learning a full disassembly but could one also flush the guts with lighter fluid or an aerosol gun scrubber/cleaner without full takedown?
Holster; primarily for storage, won't be a daily carry. Anybody got suggestions for a classy looking holster?
