Latest pawnshop rescue Model 19 2 1/2"
I gotta stay out of the pawnshops around here and in the Springs.
I go in there and find stuff I cannot live without. I'm looking for a nice 4" 66 or 67-1 but this one cried out to me "Take me home!"
I just could not leave it there. When I got it home, I gave it a bath and dressed it up in some Spegel's.

I don't have that problem with the pawn shops around here, since I can live without overpriced jewelry and outdated electronics.

Neat 19 you have there! I could use 1 to go with the 66-2, 2.5" I bought earlier this year. Enjoy your 19! Bob

Congrats on a fantastic pawn shop rescue. I can't stay away either. A few of the local pawn shops will call me when a Smith revolver comes out of pawn. Here are a couple of recent rescues. A 10-5 with 8 notches carved on the lower portion of the grips, don't know what's up with that, and a 686-5 plus. Pics are from the manager. Oh, I got a fantastic deal.

I had one many years ago. Sold it because I found something else I had to have. That does not happen anymore..

Yup. Another one to hunt down. I may never find that 67-1 but looking sure will be fun!

Found my 67 no dash with perfect target grips on it at a pawn shop last fall. It was in almost perfect condition for $475 out the door. Always hit the pawn shops when you can because deals are still out there!
