    According to the S&W Standard Catalog (2nd Edition) the Model 14 (nickel with 8 3/8 barrel) with a scene from Last Stand (product code 100311) was made as part of "the twelve revolvers" series in 1990 for Ellett Brothers of Chapin, SC. "This series of 12 different guns was sold by subscription, with a different gun offered each month. The firearms each have an action scene engraved on the sideplate and were sequentially numbered from 1 to 500." The Last Stand Model 14 was the August Edition. According to this source the series was never completed by S&W due to a parting of the business relationship. Apparently they're now found in full and broken sets and there isn't any data on how many sets were actually completed.

    Thanks 22hipower for the information. I remember this being offered now, as I did a small amount of business with them several years ago. VGUN1
