The Smith & Wesson M13 was an unofficial designation for the 'Airweight' Aircrewman, an alloy framed version of the [[Smith & Wesson Model 10|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)
