I became interested in N frames a couple of years ago and always try to buy revolvers that are in as good a condition as I can afford. I have both NIB and others that have been shot.

What started as a blue finish preference now encompasses both blue and nickel. This usually allows me to avoid the shoot or don't shoot dilema. If I buy a gun that has been shot, I'll try to find a NIB mate in the other finish.

I can't deny any longer that I am certifiably addicted.
