Slick, and all original!

Great looking nickel.

Are you planning to get the rust off around that one cyl flute where the nickle flaked? Mother's Nag Wheel polish works well. Or Naval Jelly, then polish and wax.

Mark, Was this one of Larry Geartner's T-Locks from his estate auction? He had the best selection of them, we combined our collections for a display of 108 T-Locks at the Tucson symposium. We had planned to display 100 T-Locks at the Sturbridge,MA Symposium, which was the 100th anniversary. of the T-Lock but the Mass. State DOJ would not let non-residents bring in handguns to Mass. w/o paying them a fee of $100 each ! Ed.

Hi Ed,

No, This one I picked up from a private collector at the Vegas show gun show back in Jan. I did get one of Larry's Target Tlocks at the same show from DC. DC picked the target up at one of the earlier actions after Larry passed. Larry was a very good friend and mentor. I have several of his guns I bought directly from him when his was still here. He is missed! I believe he introduced you and I many years ago in Santa Barbara. I recently picked up one of Larry's 44-40 cal Tlocks at auction..
