A year or 2 ago, I asked about this used model 27-8 and several people helped me find it's a Lew Horton run...
Put it back in the original flight case and haven't touched it since tonight. I'm seeing these beautiful model 28s and want to be sure mine is taken care of and maybe shoot it?
The RMD number is 45. These photos aren't very flattering. Before storing, I put a light coat of CLP on it and haven't even wiped it down yet. The finish actually looks better than the photos. Don't think it's ever been fired. I have everything for it, except the original Lew Horton signed document.
I did pick up some Ren wax. Besides that, only have some Blast and CLP. This is the only nickel gun I own and, even after reading here, I'm not sure how best to care for this finish. I don't think this is a rare piece, but it's certainly a beauty. Should I shoot it?
* Basically, is there a
'best' thread or recommendation for cleaning/preserving (what seems to be) the very sensitive nickel finish?
* Would you shoot this one, having a number of other .357 wheels?
* Any ideas on value?
As always, thanks for the help!
