As some of you know I have been around this forum for about 18 months and I appreciatte all of the help and support you have provided in my collecting of Marlins. My interest has recently returned to pre 1900 Smiths, I decided to join the S&W Collectors Association and found out that I need a current member as a sponser. Anyone out there fit the bill. Don't be bashful I might not be asking this question if Marlin built 44/45 single actions.

Mike;

I am sure if you contact Jim Supica at Old Town Station, Ltd. he would be glad to sponser you (913-492-3000) or (http://www.ArmchairGunShow.com.) Jim is a gun dealer as well as a S&W collector, and one of the judges at the NRA Convention. If you tell him you are a potental customer, that might even help things along.
Good luck........
I hope this helps.

Be prepared to dig deep in your pockets to join S&W! It ain't cheap!

$60 the first year and $45 thereafter. Considering the info is not available to the public on the internet if one is pursue collecting S&W just consider it the cost of doing buisness.

That's much less than I had heard when they had their annual meeting here last year! Not a bad price.
Have you got Jim's book on S&W? It's a very informative book!

That is the price listed on their website.
