			well regardless of whether it's a DS or an OP I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it is personally owned by Selleck. it's my understanding that he has a very respectable collection of classic firearms. --[[User:Jcordell\|Jcordell]] 23:10, 26 March 2012 (CDT)

			The OP and I caught nearly identical screen shots. Adjusting the brightness and contrast shows the trigger guard profile which is more oval on the DS than the OP. Selleck likes .45's; he should have a New Service Fitz! All in the spirit... Thanks. --[[User:Sg688\|Sg688]] 21:48, 26 March 2012 (CDT)

	:Using rubber bands was the predecessor to Pachmayer and Houge rubber grips as well. I believe that Pachmayer introduced the Presentation grip in the late sixties.

	Is this the revolver you mentioned? Its not a great shot, but I don't think there is ever a particularly clear view of it.

			Back in grandpa Reagan's time, putting rubber bands around the butt of your revolver helped keep it from sliding down your pants, if you were carrying it in your waistband 'Mexican" style, while doing undercover work.

	I forget the episode but in the first season, after the youngest Reagan was shot, Grandpa Reagan takes of his jacket to reveal a revolver tucked into his wastband. Though it's never seen clearly I would guess it was a [[Smith & Wesson Model 10\|S&W Model 10]]. The one thing that caught my eye was he seemed to have the grip covered butt to frame in rubber bands.
