That poor 637.....
Forgive this non-revolver soul, what is wrong here?
Zoom in on the bbl

Look at the barrel.
Otherwise it looks fine to me.
Frame ain't so hot either....just sayin'
Why the clip grip, when the frame clearly states that it is meant to be carried UP YOUR BUM {Wyatt Deep Cover}?
Zoom in on the bbl
So it is made for black powder and extra smoke? :)
All kinds of logos on guns, wasn't aware that one was a negative.

A snub with a hip grip isn't a bad idea at all. I'm wearing one right now.
An aluminum-frame snub with a hip grip isn't bad either, but would be punishing to practice with.
A gun with RAW's name on it automatically becomes a piece of crap just by having his name on it. It could be an M&P9 with the Apex kit and SF X-300/DG-12 and a lifetime supply of 124gr +p GDHP, which is the finest personal defense item in the history of mankind, and putting Wyatt's name on it will automatically make it suck.

MSRP is 460, and this is at 525.... not too bad if the work done at the S&W custom shop, and the ad says it was.
Based on the couple episodes I watched (for the daughter) there is also a trigger job done on it.
Obviously the Wyatt branding crap is not worth anything, so that is good news.

Well, the polish job on the flutes is gotta be worth, what, $125.00 extra? The logo does detract some style points however.

Think Bert could get the logo off it?

If you coated it or blasted the logo and stupid lettering off it is fine by me. I would just never own anything his shop touched.

12" disc sander.
I think I would gather the dust and mail it back to GS.
Just returning your logo Rich...

Kind of like playing football with your bestus football that has OJ on one side and Michale Vick on the other.[Coffee]

It needs a new barrel. That one will forever be tainted. Even beyond Bert the Great's ability to untaint.

Fucking priceless. I would pay money to see the look on Rich Asshat's face when he opened the box. [Awesom]

Wait could someone explain to me the grip and it's purpose a little more? Never seen that before, is it like a hybrid belt clip so you don't have to use a holster? Still seems unsafe with an exposed trigger.

Correct, I have no issue with the grip, in a revolver with a long double action Mexican carry is a viable option unless you keep ridged items in your underoos.
So it is made for black powder and extra smoke? :)

You'd buy a gun with Rich Wyatt's name and the Gunsmoke logo on it?
That gun has "ass antlers."
Even if the the tat is removed, the scar will always be there.

For the right price, sure. I'm guessing I should run those names through google though.

You don't have to go far, there's plenty of info and opinions here! Rich Wyatt owns Gunsmoke in Wheatridge, CO. Briefly had a TV show called American Guns, starring him and his family. Businessman of very dubious character, generally held in low esteem by most folks. Similar in character to something foul you'd scrape off the bottom of your shoe.
I give the bird to every helicopter I see now just in case it is Rich Wyatt or Tom Martino.

Haha, you said taint! What's more appropriate is the first three letters of the serial.
