[John Wesley Hardin]

Voy a revivir este post. Porque sigo despues de varios años con la duda: ¿Si al modelo 67 en algun momento de la historia cambiaron de ser Tappered Barrel a Heavy Barrel (o Bull Barrel)?, y si es asi ¿a partir de que año o de que numero Dash se hizo este cambio?

He visto en persona pocos modelos 67 en el club, y todos son Tappered Barrel. Pero en la primera foto del primer mensaje de este post se ve como que este revolver de Tadeus es Heavy Barrel.



También hace años el compañero CuervoTorres20 Habia posteado un modelo 15 que tambien parece ser heavy Barrel, pero segun otras informaciones todos los modelos 15 de cañon de 4" salieron con cañones Tappered (los de 2" si son heavy barrel todos, y creo tambien los de 6"). Aqui el link de ese viejo post: https://www.mexicoarmado.com/revolvers/840-curiosidad.html

Esta es la imagen que nos compartio Cuervotorres20



Vi en el libro de Standard Catalog of S&W y no dice ningun cambio el modelo 67 en algun momento a Heavy Barrel (tal vez con la excepcion de 1996 que se cambio a los cañones de dos secciones):

En los años 2000s si hubo un modelo 15 Heavy Barrel de 4", pero era una edicion de los nuevos clasicos que mas bien tenia todo el "look" de modelo 19, inclyendo un shroud para la varilla extractora. Pero mi duda es en los modelos normales antes de 1999. ¿Hubo variantes en Heavy Barrel?

Hace años veia tanto modelo parecido de la marca Smith y no le encontraba sentido, yo pensaba que un modelo para cada tamaño de cañon y con eso era suficiente y no jajajajjaa.

El modelo 15 es un clasico y la verdad si le hizo falta que de linea saliera una version con ese cañon Bull y sus miras ajustables, ya estaba el 10 con cañon Bull pero con miras fijas.

Ese peso extra de cañon le da mas estabilidad para tiro y se justificaria mas en un arma con miras ajustables.

Yo lo que he conocido de revolver 15 a sido en 2 pulgadas de cañon, el de 4 comun y corriente que es medio delgado el cañon, y una ocacion vi un 15 de 6 pulgadas.

Pero cañon Bull de fabrica no sabia que lo hubiera
