Is There No End to This Madness? Look What Followed Me Home
Stopped in to my favorite LGS last week to pick up the Model 629-2 I posted earlier and Joe said that Bob was trading in a Model 14. Sooo... I had to take a look, right. Well It followed me home today  it's a dash four in eight and three eight's. Condition is a solid 95% It had aftermarket stocks on so I traded them out for a later (1980's) pair of Target Stocks. The search is on for a "correct" set of Target Stocks, football cut out I believe. Lock up is excellent and looks to have been shot very little. A couple of pics are below with it's safe mates. A six-inch 14-3 and a 1949 "Heavy Masterpiece".

That's a very nice 14-4. I'm not surprised that it does not have holster wear.
There is no end to the madness. You can distract yourself by bringing home Ruger revolvers but even that does not bring the madness to and end.

A real beauty Fredo!
Hey if you ever want to sell your 1949, I've been looking for one. That's my birth year......
