19-2 with a 6" slab barrel and full rib sight. Even has a hole through the front of the grip so you can do a strain screw action job on the line. Buddy of mine (not a gun person) did that on his duty S&W 65 and it saved his life. Some hijackers disarmed him and when they went to execute him the 65 went click. His Colt detective BUG went boom and the rest is history. Oh well a slight deviation from the topic at hand!!

??? In the midst of a hijacking he backed off the strain screw on a S&W before it was taken from him???

No. He did an "action job" by backing off the strain screw at home long before the hijacking. Lord knows how long he carried the inoperative revolver before the hijacking incident.

I knew what the answer had to be but the way you wrote the story made it come out funny Durn, them OK bad guys are MEAN Take a cops gun away and try to shoot him dead! Must have read some Steven Hunter novels.

I have ranted against messing with strain screws on the S&W Forum. It's a sure way to have a gun stop working when you can't afford that. There's much better ways to do trigger jobs.
