I had one too... We bought one from a Deputy Sheriff in Fl. back in 1970 and it was a "purty" thang...
But, you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it, from the INSIDE.
I thought it might just be me, but I had a buddy shoot it and the results were the same. His take was that when the barrel was cut off the "crown" job was ******, ergo, terrible accuracy.
There was a fellow at work that I didn't care for who wanted to buy it, so I happily sold it to him.. I expected him to come back fuming, but he never did, so guess he never actually shot it.
