2009年1月4日 · My 63 was a replacement for my beloved old blue 34 four-inch, which I sold during a divorce in '79, to my considerable disappointment. The 34 wasn't quite as touchy about cleanliness and gave less trouble. One can't help but wonder that the 63 was discontinued, like the 940, another J-frame with a spotty record.

2011年9月29日 · I don't have a picture, but I carry my 4" 63 in a Safariland holster I bought from someone here on the forum. It is brown basketweave, and has what I believe S-land used to call a "sight-track." My brother has a 4" 63 and is left handed. I had Ray at Lobogunleather make him this carved threepersons holster for Christmas last year. It is a beauty.

2017年1月14日 · Although not specifically listed, the range falls in the 1986 time frame. It actually falls within the range of a 63-1 as it is not pinned, which were discontinued in 1982. I'm guessing the -1 just didn't get stamped. Errors do happen, see this post, Missing roll mark _____

2020年11月20日 · I am thinking of parting with my 1978 S&W model 63 in 22LR. Very conservitively , let's say 90% condition, excellent bore, square butt, original stocks, and 4 inch barrel.

2013年4月6日 · Thanks. Like I said, I've wanted a 63 for a couple of years. It wasn't until today that I realized they started producing them in 1977. I thought I might have the grounds for a new search. Unfortunately I'm not usually patient enough to execute on something like that. I will probably look for a month, find one from 1981, can call that close enough.

2022年8月18日 · The Model 63 comes and goes from my "short list" but it would be hard to turn one down if it became available any time! Even with a K-22 in hand, there's just something about a handy, durable little J-frame 22 that seems to speak to me. While historically the Model 60 predates the 63, the little 22 will always have a special place in S&W history.

2013年4月11日 · Hello, wanted to hear from forum members about this particular gun. I really wanted a 617, but felt those are too large and heavy for a .22. The J-frames seem better suited to this role. I have a chance to buy a Model 63 (no dash) that has a pinned barrel and the six-shot cylinder. What's a good price for very good condition?

2014年6月20日 · A “stainless kit gun,” the Model 63, was offered from 1977 to 1998, in both square and round butt configurations. Both 4” and 2” barrels were produced. There were a number of variations. Post-war Kit Guns made after 1953 were offered with either 4” or 2” barrels.
