Lesson 2: K Frame?

Skydive

September 26, 2002 06:51

This is more of a spinoff from my first lesson. I bought the S&W Mod 66 because I liked the way it felt in my hand and when I fired it. Also I seem to hear a lot of people at the range say prefer the model because it's non-automatic which could potentially jam on you.

What's a K Frame, I know mine is, but what exactly is the frame? What other frames are there and what distiguishes them from others?

Every so often, I like to stick my head out the window, look up, and smile for a satellite picture.

  I had the same question some time ago and Saxon Pig and another member put it this way.
  
  J= smallest frame
  k= next size bigger
  L= next size bigger
  N= Biggest modern frame
  
  This is Modern day usage,hope this helps

  Model 19(blued)/66(stainless) is indeed a K frame.
