I loved the ancient brown-blued S&W .38s we used to have, I think they had 5" barrels.
When I shot them I felt just like Humphrey Bogart.
Of course we had much more 'high tech and up to date' handguns as well, S&W Model 39s with hushpuppies, and some loose old .45s left over from WW2 I think.
No wonder we brought our own pistols!!!
