Smile Great Forum, Great Friends, Great GUN (A Pre-28 fairytale)

Some of you might remember this thread:

Pre 28 Highway Patrolman Gun show find

Long story short, I get a call from Mike (at the gunshow) saying that he has found a MINT 5-Screw Highway Patrolman with original box. He asks if the price is good and I tell him "Yes." He reads me the serial number, S119344. Cool, I have S119262 (4" with original box). Mike, being a J-frame accumulator, wasn't personally interested in the HP but (like me) could not leave a factory fresh vintage S&W lay around homeless so he bought it and offered it to me! A week or so later I drove north and met Mike to buy the gun.

It is a gem with original box and Helpful hints pamphlet. I added the SAT and correct vintage cleaning kit. I assume the gun shipped with magnas and these target stocks are of later vintage but they match the condition of the gun so well. I do have a set of non relieved checkered target stocks I may put on it but for now I'm leaving it "as found."

***I WILL ADD THAT THIS GUN WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN MINE IF IT WEREN'T FOR MIKE AND THE CONNECTION WE MADE THROUGH THE FORUM AND THE NORTHEAST OHIO BUNCH MEETINGS! THIS TRULY IS AN AMAZING PLACE! MIKE, I OWE YOU A NICE I/J FRAME!!!!!!

















With the rest of the HP "clan"

"Gun shows are not all junk! There is always 1 golden nugget..." Not always, but often enough. I find the nuggets are becoming more rare.

That's a vary nice gun Kris. Glad the connection was made at the bunch. Mike,it was nice of you to help out another S&W collector. It would be nice to see the 28 collection in person in the fall. Gotta find a date before deer season or mention some SAT's for sale. Larry

Larry,

the Fall Bunch is usually a toss-up for me. Along with beginning of deer season, there is my anniversary and my daughters birthday. The spring is easier for me.

I will try to bring them next spring.
