Another 44 Bulldog fan here. I had one several years ago, shot it a few times then sold it off to buy something else. Then I saw this one at my dealers a few weeks back. I got it for something like $325 or so. After all, I had 44 Special ammo. I needed a gun to go with it.
According to Charter it's from Bridgeport, circa 1983. It was dry as a bone when I got it, but a little oil, went a long way.
