My latest addition .32-20
Posted in HE thread but I spent a lot of time lately reading this entire thread and wanted to include her here.
Mine is SN 977XX from around 1921, Model of 1905, Fourth Change. Looks and feels great. Has two repair dates stamped in grip frame '48. Possibly replated but fine job as all stampings are crisp, no nickel on hammer, trigger or star. It's a 5" barrel. Bore and action are great, no hammer push off. It should have a heat treated cylinder as it appears that started with #81287. All numbers match on frame, barrel, cylinder, on star, and on yoke as seen through charge hole. Stocks appear to match but the penciled number is too difficult to read but correct grips with very good checkering.
Got some 115gr Ultramax ammo and may get her to the range this week or next.
