So a buddy of mine offered me this in trade for a stock Glock G34, and I didn’t have to kiss him or nothin!
That’s ridiculous. Might be one of the best deals ever. You did well.

What makes you think so?
Actually, pinned up on the wall over my headboard.I bet you just took that picture out of your wallet.
FIFYActually, pinned up on the ceiling over my head.
I like the looks of the Compac Pro grips except for the medallions.
Might have to try some anyway.
Wow, that's a nice way to enter the revolver world. Congrats!After drooling over this thread from post #1-present I can finally say I have joined the club. Special thanks to @Prosecutor for the advice on the purchase, etc.
S&W 12-2
Some dings, gashes and scratches but locks up nice. Already had the Tyler T waiting for its arrival.

New to me .44 special Rossi 720. Not a good picture as I made it in the basement. Outside during the daylight should do better.
chunked full of some 240 grain SWC's
That is a beautiful Model 12. Don't be afraid to tote it around. It's a great warm (or any) weather carry piece. You'll find that the anodized frame shows wear a bit faster than regular bluing but it does not rust and adds character. The Tyler T and Magna grip combo is classic and functional. Well done.

meet Amadeo....
Amadeo Rossi that is. I deleted the earlier post and took some better photos today
.44 special...hand loads with 240 grain SWC's
I went to Raleigh for work today and, on my way home, found this 1975-1976 Smith & Wesson Model 10-5 in a Sanford, NC gun shop. Was going to snap a photo and drop it in the “deals thread” for anyone who might be interested...but then I decided to take it home myself [emoji16].
K Frame snubs are harder and harder to find. It’s even harder to find a high condition nickel Model 10. This gun is lightly used. No significant wear. Nickel is 100% intact.

Damn, I wish I ran across that! I always have preferred revolvers in nickel or stainless over blue. Must have wood grips too.
If you think of parting with it let me know. The shops around my way do not have anything besides plastic guns or beat to death metals ones (used guns that is).
Great score!
I stop in nearly every gun shop, pawn shop, or possible “gun selling place” out of some odd compulsion, but online is where it’s at for classic Smiths and Colts. The auction sites and forums.

Just curious, Prosecutor, was that the gun store right off US1 in Sanford?
Yup, just down from Davidson’s steakhouse. Haven’t stopped in there yet but I intend to now. Thanks!Yes. Used to be K&L Guns. It is now Carolina Firearms Training & Gun Sales. Owner was very nice. Retired cop. I invited him to the forum.
The shop is visible from Route 1 but is really on a small street that runs next to it. Left side of the road if headed north.
Here’s his card:

Nice find. Can you just imagine the stories it could tell?Picked up this old 5 screw Chiefs Special at Cabelas today. With a vintage (unshrounded trigger) SafariLand holster it was just under $300. Internet lore puts it at 1952 or so? It's been carried a lot but locks up tight. I'm not sure I like the target grips on it to look at , but it sure feels nice in the hand.
