This one is a 1980 Smith & Wesson 65-2 that was turned into a Custom Power Grand Master Deluxe. Not sure exactly when the work was done, a safe bet would be early 1980's???
I've been told Ron Power was THE guy you would want to customize or do work on a Smith & Wesson back then.
I have a few old gun magazines that feature the Custom Power Grand Master Deluxe on their cover with some pretty good articles too. If any of you fellas have some old gun magazines pertaining to the Grand Master Deluxe laying around that you are not too attached to, I like to see about possibly getting them from ya'.
I currently have:
- American Handgunner, May/June 1978 (real good article by Massad Ayoob)
- GUNS, Nov. 1980
- American Handgunner, Sept/Oct 1983
- American Handgunner, Jan/Feb 1987
