WhiteCoyote-Nice collection. Most of the Detroit police revolvers don't do anything for me, but the two snubbies you have are fantastic. Nice to see more locals have great taste in handguns.

These are really neat and everything, but y'all will have to pardon my ignorance. What's the difference in Detroit marked P.D. guns, and other marked P.D. issue weapons? I'd love to have ANY of these, but I don't see the added interest.


My computer, my opinion. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>



It is a way of "collecting" something, I live in Philly, and if the Philly PD had such a rich heritage of Smith and Colt revolvers, I would have them too!
You collect smiths?
Why not iver johnsons??

No pics but a friend of mine worked for DPD starting in 1971. He bought his own duty gun - a nickel 6" Python that he carried until they authorized semi-autos. As a detective he carried a Chief's Special.
