Model 40 The Centennial, Model 67, M31, M34, and a M19.
Picked these beauties up over the past 2 weeks.
The Centennial M40 has a serial number of 12XX. I believe it is a first year run of 1952. Someone correct me if I am off on the date. Grips number and she is a looker.
The 19-5 (1982) is a shooter and the price was right. Took off the rubber grips and placed proper ones on her.
The 31-1 (1975) .32 long came with original box and papers. She too is stunning.
The 34-1 is gorgeous and came with original box, papers, and tools still in the bag.
The 67 is a no dash from 1973. Stainless sights up front and a joy to shoot.
Pics don't do them justice.
Enjoy!
Hank

You are one of the few who are finding nice condition older models in any frequency. Consider yourself very lucky.

Sir, I believe you will find that a gun with a 4 digit serial number is probably mid to late 1953!

They're all beauties, but I'm terribly, terribly envious over the 40 and the 31-1.
