I don't think I qualify, I've owned a S&W 1902 DA 2nd model in 32-20 for many years.
It was my Dads, I think he acquired in the 1930's , and I know he had it while on PT's toward the end of WW2.
As a little fellow I remember he allowed me to shoot it .
It was the most powerful handgun, I had ever shot by age 8 ... have only shot 22's.
He had an H&R 9 shot 22 mod. 999 , that was my main shooter with him.
In 1963 my Grandfather passed, and Dad gave the 22 to a Lawyer friend that help him with the estate.

In 1969 or 70, I found a Brand new H&R 999 , I purchased it for my Dad, in return he handed me the S&W DA.
I know it's not Schofield, but it has much history.

Thanks Joss,

I remember a little S&W DA top break in 32 S&W (short) with a 3 1/2" barrel.
My Mother had it as Cashier & Ticket Sales at Regent Theater in Miami.
The theater was owned by my Granddad.
As a side story, a Young DESI ARNAZ/aka Ricky Ricardo used to Sing & dance at the weekly Sat. Evening Stage show with the picture.
He was often accompanied by Al Capone's son.

I lost track of the gun,in the 80's , It was in need of repair as I recall , Broken hand spring & Bolt spring I think.
Hard Rubber Grip were missing a few little chunks too.
Would have made a great little side match pocket pistol.

 I've got a question to go with my request for membership. Can the Navy Arms 44 Russian be smithed up to sliphammer. Never took mine that far apart to look. They shoot real well as they are, but I have a minor dissability (no feeling in portions of both hands), so two handed shooting is a must for safety reasons. Since I gotta' anyway, I wondered if this could be done.
  Anyhow, I've got two Navy Arms 44 Russians and an H&R top break pocket pistol in 32 S&W short. The Russians are 44S&W, blued with white ghiraffe bone grips. The H&R is nickeled and basicaly in original configuration.

Howdy Sgt.

Nice looking Russians ya got there. Wish we could of shot on the same posse. If permitted, I would have liked to shot those babies. But again it might have made my waiting for mine that much longer! ;D

I know with my luck my Schofields wont be in on time to shot with ya on the 25th. But I'll be there with my Rugers. :)
