Smith & Wesson M13 (moved from main page)
The Smith & Wesson M13 was an unofficial designation for the 'Airweight' Aircrewman, an alloy framed version of the Model 10 purchased by the US Military for use by air crews. This revolver was later deemed unsatisfactory and removed from service, with all but a handful subsequently crushed for scrap.
Model 13 vs M13
These should probably be split between two pages, as the Model 13 is the heavy-barelled K-Frame .357, whereas the Aircrewman is the M13 (not Model 13), which is a US military designation and not a S&W factory designation. - Nyles
- I concur, there should be a seperate page for the 'Aircrewman' revolver, just like there's seperate pages on the M1917 .45 ACP Colt and Smith revolvers and their respective main models (Smith Triple Lock/Colt New Service), same thing here I think. StanTheMan 23:35, 13 July 2011 (CDT)
- It looks like there aren't any appearances by the M13, however. Can we justify creating a new page for it then? Why not just delete any mention of it from this page? --Funkychinaman 23:55, 13 July 2011 (CDT)
