Baby Chief Nickel Smooth Ramp added to collection

Through this forum I have been very fortunate to meet a lot of great people. Because of this I have been able to add several revolvers to my collection; this one is a very rare lettered Nickel Baby Chief with a smooth front ramp sight, shipped in June 1952, SN: 7422. If a nickel half moon ever comes available I have no idea what I would do, but that is next. Thanks Alex.

Here is the collection displayed in my office.

Nice collection! And I like those stands. Something you made or something that can be purchased online?

Jack, ain't it awful, everybody's excited about the stands!!! Well, me too, but that is one very beautiful nickel smooth ramp baby chief! I have a smooth ramp, but in blue. Even the blue ones are rare, and the nickel smooth ramps must be scarcer than hen's teeth, especially in that good a condition. Congratulations on getting one step closer to filling the list of possible baby variations. I've never been in this position, but what happens if you finally get every variation? Start over with say Terriers? I have a couple of those, and I can see that there are quite a number of variations of them as well. Again... Congratulations and thank you for sharing with us.
