Default M58 Nickle

I purchased this M58 some time ago and I finally found a post from bdGreen explaining how to post photos (many thanks). Thought I would show it off some. SN places its dob in 1973. It's been "Magna Ported" but for me it's a shooter (I started handloading .41 Magnum for an 83/8" M57 nickle about 25 years ago). I've been looking for an M58 for quite some time. The nickle finish is a plus. I've posted photos "as purchased" and with a set of Magna grips. I'm still looking for a set of PC Magnas for it.

Default Nice 58

Sweet!

I just got my first 58 a short while ago, and I love it. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite guns.

Enjoy yours!

I have one like that minus the porting and the wood grips.
Haven't shot it in a while so I should do something about that soon.

I'm also another .41 nut, started reloading my Uncles 8.375" M57 when I was in the SFQC during 84'. I also still have a 58 in my collection.
