I picked up this pre war 22 OUTDOORSMAN off of one of the on line auctions. Winning bid was $501. It is in the 649xxx range. It is tight as new, has matching numbered grips and an excellent bore. The blue is about 95% with slight holster wear at the muzzle and a rub mark on the side plate. I'd buy these guns all day for $500.

Gary,
A great 'save' of another fine old gun that deserves it!
Good going.
Don

Haven't shot it yet, but from the condition of the bore and the lock up and trigger pull, I expect it will shoot fine

Good catch. Letter it for grins and giggles. For what you've got in it you couldn't go wrong.

Gary,
Very nice! I'm thinking on-line shopping is getting much easier than cruising the tables at the Tulsa shows. Thanks for sharing.

It sure is easier on the legs. But not nearly as much fun!!! But there are still good deals to be found at both place
