Good morning gentlemen, I'm very new here and just made my account to be able to post on this page. I was at my favorite local gun/pawn shop last week when two older ladies came in with a rusted revolver. They just wanted to sell it and did not know anything about it. With live rounds stuck in the cylinder, the guys at the shop carefully worked on it a bit. The shop ended up buying it for $20, I in return asked if after the 10 day hold if I could buy it and how much. The shop manager said $25 dollars. Anyway it's been about 3 or 4 days into this 10 day hold and I've been doing quite a bit of research on this revolver. I have learned it's a T.A.C. revolver from Eibar, Spain. However I found something on this one that I haven't found much info on. On most it says ".38 special or us service ctg". The one I will be buying only says "For .38 special ctg" and nothing else. Can somebody please explain why this one only says for .38 special? I'm going to include pictures of how the revolver looks now and please tell me if I should refinish it, only remove the rust and if you personally think it's ok to fire. Thank you guys and any help is much appreciated!
