Brought a Lady Home from the Gun Show
I've been looking for a nice 3913 Lady Smith for quite a while and found an ANIB, never fired one at the local gun show this weekend. Appears flawless, no powder residue anywhere inside the gun or on the mag followers. Numbered box includes unopened cleaning kit, manuals, warranty card and wax paper. Private sale $460 OTD. Now I just got to decide whether to shoot it or not.

Very cool- always feels good to stumble on something you’ve been after and walk away with it. Congrats

According to my wife I have been a Very Bad Boy for the last 51 years of marriage to her. I have had a lot of guns over the years and still buy and sell some as well. Same with vehicles she never knows what I am going to drive one day to the next. If I spot a Good deal I usually buy it even for a flip sometimes. I still like big powerful V8 engines in all my toys.

I couldn't resist: shoot her and carry. It's what she was made for. You wouldn't buy a thoroughbred quarterhorse and keep her in a stall.

Congratulations. I found one this weekend myself. No box or papers, but like yours, I can't find any sign it's been fired. I paid $400.00, for it with two magazines. I'd been looking for one to show up at my local dealer for a couple of years.
It will be fired some time this week.
