Choosing your gun - old school
This has got to be from 1925-1935.

The brochure mentions the Smith and Wesson 357 revolver, which was introduced in 1935, for $60.

Right you are. I went just on no mention of Model 70 which also started about 1935 and Model 54 starting '25 or '27 I think.
I was a rifle guy before I was a BE guy.

Re: Choosing your gun - old school
I got quite a chuckle out of that brochure.
It turns out that I have many of the weapons Col. Whelen recommends - Winchester 54 in .30-06 [my father's hunting rifle that I used for years], a number of Winchester 52 target rifles [A, C, and D models], Smith & Wesson .357 Magnum [M27] in 3.5 and 5 inch barrels, S&W K22 revolver, etc.
It is amazing how quality and experience carries through the generations.
