BC38, I've found some awesome deals. I picked up a perfect model 65-3, for $300, I also recently snaged a 1974 Ruger New model Blackhawk in 41 magnum for $371 out the door. We are in some strange times, some guns are very marked up, like the Taurus G2C I sold for twice what I paid for it. I did have to pay some consignment fees but that helped fund this purchase. Other guns are on sale because they use unavailable ammo,and people in Desperate need of cash. It's a good time to trade plastic guns for guns with history and the sole of the fine craftsmanship.

I think that Roy made a typo......it probably should read Rex Firearms.
Great find either way. You gotta keep that one! they are just not floating around anywhere everyday.

Okay, good to know.
I'm thinking of searching for a presentation case for it, does anyone know where I could get one? Does anyone make special order cases. I really like the look of the blue flocked inserts.

Joe Cebull is here on the forum and he restores factory boxes. His handle here is jcelect IIRC. You might send him a PM, he may have completed boxes for sale.
Or, you might find one in the classifieds here, or post a 'want to buy' ad. It is free to use. Good luck!
