Default Here's My 1926 W&K BBQ Gun

Here's my 1926 W&K, probably the most honked up 3rd Model on the Forum! I've posted this revolver before because I turned it into my BBQ gun. Back in the day (1940s or 50s?), a previous owner had the half-moon front sight removed, added a ramp and Baughman sight, then had the revolver re-nickeled. Anyway, it is still an early 3rd Model, shipped to W&K in May 1927. I paid ~$700 for it, but I had Ford's gunsmith check out/tune the interior, traded the much later Magnas for some Pat Grashorn stag stocks, and Bob Mernickle made a cross-draw holster for me. It's a good .44 Spl. shooter and sure looks purty.
