I have a Model 36 S&W Chiefs Special with 2 inch barrel and square butt that I bought from Evaluators Limited in 1970. I still have the original box with the bill of sale signed by Flora Mae Van Orden. She gave me a LE discount since I was a District of Columbia Corrections Officer, and the price before sales tax was $75.60.
I went back there a number of times over the years, to buy target grips for it and also to buy reloading supplies when I started reloading. It was a real hoot listening to her stories about competitive shooting in the 1920's and 30's, and going to Central America with her husband during the Banana War years. She was a truly great lady!
When Evaluators LTD went out of business, Archie Mayer of Mayco Guns and later Triangle Reloading Bench bought up all her S&W parts, which came in handy when my Model 19 needed a couple of parts in the late '80's.
