The Model 19 No-Lock Classic K-Frame revolver is chambered in .357 Mag. and has a six-round capacity. MSRP is $1,099.

 

Leading off this new revolver lineup is the Smith & Wesson Model 36 Classic, a J-Frame chambered in .38 Special +P that has a five-shot capacity and 1.88-inch barrel with a fixed blade front sight, plus an integral slot-in-frame rear sight and a classic checkered wood grip.

Moving on to the K-Frames, this series offers two six-shot revolvers, the Smith & Wesson Model 10 Classic chambered in .38 Special +P, as well as the Smith & Wesson Model 19 Classic chambered in .357 Magnum.

The new Model 10 includes a four-inch barrel with a fixed blade front sight, an integral slot-in-frame rear sight, blued carbon steel frame and cylinder, and high-grade Tyler Gun Works walnut grips.

If you prefer a .357 magnum, the new Model 19 Classic is a great one add to the collection. It features a 4.25-inch barrel with a red ramp insert front sight, adjustable black blade rear sight, blued carbon steel frame and cylinder, along with a checkered wood grip.
