So I had been asking Ted Yost when he was going to do a revolver run because I had a 13-3 3" I wanted to send him. I have always considered the 13 3" to be one of the best conceal carry revolvers. There was a reason the FBI carried them. Ted kept reminding me he is neck deep in 1911s and BHPs so he said it might be a while if ever. He likes to remind me he is not going to work forever. Well he and I were talking about my soon to be completed 1911 and he mentioned he got some guns from an estate and I asked if there were any revolvers in there. I struck gold and there was a 13-3 3". Ted said he does not believe it was shot much if at all since it left him. He of course looked it over before he sent it out and all I can say is it looks amazing. This will complete my Yost Trio. A BHP, a Colt 1911 and a S&w 13-3 3" Revolver. So here it is in all its glory.
