   S&W, making it THICC before anyone else.

   I remember this ad well. It ran in American Handgunner (and perhaps elsewhere). It was in response to an earlier Ruger ad in which Ruger showed a GP100 and a S&W 686 side by side with the ad copy suggesting that the Ruger’s “thicker” construction made it stronger and more durable.

   S&W’s response was brilliant.

   One advantage Ruger revolvers DO have over the S&W? I can field strip a Ruger Revolver, clean it more efficiently, and do some of my own minor repairs.

   Just sayin’…
