The model 36 that ain't.....
Wash out at the deer lease this weekend so
I decided to set-up for a medium size gun show
at the last minute.
I had a kinda rough old model 10 on the table
priced at $325.00($300.00 would buy it).
I make a chow run on Saturday and leave my apparently
vision impaired B.I.L. at my table.
When I returned I noticed the 10 gone and was advised
"I went ahead a made a trade."
He advised a elderly gent came in with a "clean"
model 36 but wanted a larger handgun so he traded
the 10 for the 36.
I glace at the 36 and tell him way to go.
While eating I pick up the "36".
It is a 32-1 dates to 1972.
He is getting a magnifying glass for Christmas.

...you say you brought him along to help? Well then......
He must have some redeeming qualities. I take it he went home unscarred.

I remember reading somewhere that the M32 was fairly popular among female cops at one time. I don't think I have ever knowingly seen a M32.

Yes. I'd trade a common, somewhat worn, Model 10 for a nice Terrier any day of the week. Keep your brother-in-law around!
