. FS: Outstanding Colt Lawman MKIII 357 snubnose in high collector grade, 98+% original finish, with near-mint original factory grips.
Would be impossible to improve on. No wear whatsoever of the leading edges of the frame or cylinder, the cylinder itself, the strap areas, the triggerguard, or the barrel. Barely visible faint cylinder turn line which does not penetrate the bluing. Just the barest thin rim, 1/32 of an inch, on the rim of the muzzle. Inspection of the forcing cone and blast plate confirms this has been shot very little. An outstanding Colt all the way around; No box or docs. SN is J728XX which dates this to 1972 per Proofhouse. The Lawman was manufactured from 1969 to 1983.

$510 shipped FFL to FFL insured Priority Mail, which costs me about $30. If condition is important to you, this is your Lawman snubbie; first unequivocal "I'll take it" followed by email to me will be the new owner of this beautiful wheelgun.

2. +++SPF+++Nice S&W Model 14 No Dash K-38 Masterpiece in NRA excellent condition but with a wisp of bluing fade at the muzzle; the barrel finish is otherwise clean asides from a single small superficial hairline scratch on the left side of the barrel just beyond where the barrel begins; leading edges of the frame and cylinder are without significant wear; the cylinder itself is without significant mars asides from a thin cylinder rotation line. There are a few other very small handling marks. A few tiny marks of the trigger guard. It has a trigger shoe which is easily removed if so desired.

After I photographed this wheelgun I acquired a pretty nice set of period-appropriate K-frame diamond magnas and have decided to include them with this vintage 14 no dash instead of the magnas shown on the gun. A pic of the diamond magnas is shown below.

Actually a very nice 14 no-dash. The finish overall is conservatively 94-95%.
SN is K3845xx dating this wheelgun to 1959.

$385 shipped FFL to FFL insured Priority Mail (my actual cost is about $30).

Hello:

Does this revolver have a good bore and lock up?

I'm considering it for target (Distinguished Revolver) shooting.

Thank you.

Ned

Bore clean as a whistle. Rifling excellent. Action smooth.
Cylinder lock up excellent.
