Thanks! I sent my 6" Taurus .357 M66 (7-shot) to Chris for his birthday last week. It's pretty minty, with box and paperwork. Don't need it anymore now that I've got this. Thanks again for finding the guy who was selling it at the gunshow ... it was the only deal I saw all day long.

I sold my old H&R Guardsman carry pistol and remaining supply of .32 S&W Long and got almost got as much as I gave the guy for the 19-5. The Model 35 Beretta 7.65 fits great in the same ankle holster so I'll never miss it.

For as much as California firearms laws suck, they've got pretty good regs for family transfers. Download a PDF, fill it out and send it in with 19 bucks. No FFL transfer. Chris is really happy with it ... he never even considered a wheel gun before.
