I remember for a year or two that Dan Wesson made a snubnose 38 five shot.  I saw one in a store and have not hear or seen one since.  Does anyone else remember this revolver?

First let me say Welcome to theDWF Sign.  The answer is yes, its a Little Dan you refer to. A few guys here have one. How many Dans do you have? I will let the others jump in from here. Once again welcome.

Yep, as LB stated, a few of us have been lucky enough to land an elusive "Lil' Dan". They are unique from any other Dan Wesson, in that they have a smaller size frame (and everything else, too) than other DW models. They were made in the 90's, at the Palmer plant.

Here's a couple pics of mine, same gun is currently in my signature pic at the bottom of my post.

Welcome Lobosailor.  I also have had the good fortune to acquire one of the Lil' Dans.  My wife has purloined it to use as her personal homeland security instrument.

We hope you enjoy our site and if you have any Dan's, be sure to post some Cool Pics.

Welcome to the DWF Sign.  I also have a Lil Dan as well.  When you are looking in the blue book it's model 738p.

I figured you guys needed a break from my pics with a hillside behind them. Or I just got lazy that day, one of those is the truth. 😛
