Up for grabs is a beautiful 1983 Smith & Wesson Model 19-5, chambered in .357 Magnum. It features the highly desirable 2-1/2″ barrel and a factory blued finish. This K-frame classic is a favorite among collectors and shooters alike, and the 2.5″ variant doesn’t come around often. Though the 19-5 series marked the transition away from pinned barrels and recessed cylinders, it still retains that solid pre-MIM craftsmanship, including a hammer-mounted firing pin. This revolver features its original Magna grips, which are in great shape and show off the vintage character of the gun. Mechanically sound and tight, the revolver locks up solidly and has a smooth trigger both in single and double action. Cosmetically, it’s very nice overall with only light signs of holster wear—nothing that detracts from its function or appeal. No box or documents included, but this is a great example of a desirable, carry-friendly K-frame .357 from the golden era of S&W.

I’m parting with this beauty as I’m downsizing my collection due to my infant Son.

Must be willing to meet in Athens, GA, as I do not have time in my schedule with my Son to travel. I am happy to ship it if you cannot travel
