The Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson provides a wealth of information and data to assist novice to experienced S&W enthusiasts/collectors. This is a much needed update to the 3rd version with regards to pricing/valuation metrics and does add new data, pictures, and information regarding various models of firearms. It comes up short with regards to the detail and values on firearms from approximately 1990 to today. With the introduction of many newer models and variations as well as performance center models the 4th edition seems mostly unchanged from the 3rd edition. I understand the difficulty in the task of providing values, but it's as if they grouped all model 625s into one category and didn't attempt to segregate more rare or valuable variations. The same applies to 627s, 629s etc. PC models appear the same, generally it lists the model but no valuation.Read full review

Too many times I had learned TOO LATE that I had let a valuable gem slip through my fingers. Now I can research pistols and revolvers that interest me, and I can be on the lookout better armed to discover those little quirks and rarities that make a purchase a very special one.
