Smith and Wesson Model 37 Questions.
My LGS has a used S&W model 37 for sale in a nickel finish. I have been quickly skimming the internet for information about these small revolvers. Wikipedia said
'In 1951, Smith & Wesson introduced the Airweight Model 37, which was basically the Model 36 design with an aluminum frame and cylinder. The aluminum cylinders proved to be problematic and were abandoned in favor of a steel cylinder'
I am trying to find as much info on the model 37 as I can, and was wondering if anyone here has one or knows much much about them.
Thanks
