Just bought a w12 with a 2.5" and a 4" barrel. That SA sure is crisp! Anyone else in the Seattle- Tacoma area? Looking for a 6" barrel, here is a couple quick pics.

Nice gun. I bought a model 12 hoping the big rear sight would help my shooting. Nope. Tri focals with a computer distance middle lens did help tremendously though.
Models 11 and 12 have a hand spring the wraps around the hand to hold it rather than the end sliding into the slot in the hand. The spring would rub against the sideplate causing it to break. That was the first change DW made. I suggest you get the redesigned hand and spring. EWK may still sell the original hand springs if you keep it the way it is and need a spring.

Thanks for the heads up on the hand spring. This one seems to have had very little use. Hopefully it won't be an issue. I am considering a reduced power mainspring, it might make sense to change it then.

Very cool porker! I really enjoy shooting my model 15-1, but a W12 is the real deal! Thanks for sharing the photos.
