Thanks. Sounds like you need to go get that one.

Someone earlier wanted some gun porn. I'll contribute.



It's got some wear marks on it, but I guess it will do for me. I think I've fired about a dozen rounds of 38 in it.
Thanks again.

I cleaned it up and mine and yours look similar in the wear marks. Carried often, handled some, and shot little. Has a nice cylinder line but other than that is pretty good. Usual marks around the muzzle and forward edges. Only thing I noticed is the rear sight has some "impact marks". Gun was dropped or maybe used to persuade someone to calm down once? Shoots POA after I got used to it.

I also cleaned it last night and discovered the folks at the store hadn't cleaned it at all. I didn't give it the "Commanding General's Inspection" cleaning but did wipe it all down very good with some CLP and LOTS of the dullness came off. Just powder residue I guess.
