I have to wonder when I used to see the pictures of the buy-backs that some of the larger city's used to run and the huge piles of handguns that they showed turned in for $50 or what ever. How many of them were old S&W, Colts etc? I remember one where they talkd about the number of antique pistols that were turned in, Luger's, Colts etc,

I recently tried to buy such a gun off GB, needing (or so I thought) a Model 14-3 for my K-32 homage. What I actually ended up with was a Model 14-3 with only minor blue loss and an action reminiscent of the masterpiece models of at least a decade earlier. I'm delighted with the gun, of course, but now I'm still needing a donor gun for my project. I had the same thing happen during Project 616 when I got aa nice Model 67-1 with a couple of easily repaired cosmetic issues, but then it wouldn't mate up to the Model 617 barrel profile like I needed. In fairness to the community, it is my practice to sell/trade these "surplus" arms to other shooters so I don't get accused of "hoarding." Anybody need a really sweet Model 14-3 priced right?

According to the above posts almost all of my revolvers are "honest" guns. I enjoy owning, carrying and shooting them. I'd post pics but guess I'm too old (70) to figure out how to do that.

I've owned several of them over the years, but only have one now, an Army 1917.
I've got a 24-3, but it's not old enough I don't suppose.

Well, I had this picture handy, this one was shipped in August 1923. Not a big bore, but a wonderful shooting little .32 Hand Ejector:
Best Regards, Les
