Ok, I've got the itch for a Model 12-4 snubbie. I've got two beautiful nickel snubs in my safe that I can't bring myself to carry. And right now I'm only interested in having carry guns in my safe. I'm just not a collector at heart. So, I'm looking to trade into the Model 12. I'm
not looking to sell and I'm only interested in a local trade (MS), at least for now. I know that narrows my options a lot, but shipping and dealing with FFLs is just a pain.
Neither revolver has box/papers. Both appear to have been shot very little and have beautiful finishes. Neither appear to have been carried in a holster.
The Detective Special finish is really outstanding, except for a series of scratches above the Pony by the cylinder release. Best I can figure, some idiot tried to use an incorrect speedloader. The scratches have a pattern but are not deep at all. I have included a separate picture of the scratches. I would like to trade it for the above mentioned Model 12-4 in similar condition.
The Model 19-3 finish is absolutely gorgeous. It would come with the Pachmeyer American Legend Grips as pictured. Trade would require a really nice 12-4.****TRADE PENDING****
On a related note, I would also consider trading the Nickel Detective Special for a standard finish Detective Special.
