Thanks for all the positive comments guys
Nightowl, it is possible that this gun came in a one pc. box and right now there is a mint 25-5 in a one pc. box on GB now but kinda steep..like 995.00 and they will not check the bores...I asked.
I am a big fan of the presentation cases so if the general time frame is correct for the revolver and the cases, you know how I'm gonna go
Looks like the gun was fired before I got it, which is fine because that's what I am going to do with it too. Thanks, Bob
