How about a 329 story?

OK, a while back I liked the one I'd bought brand new that when I saw one at the gun show, being offered up by a friend, I bought it. Also in my travels I picked up a second 396. Foolish boy. So a while back the 2nds of each became surplus. I took them to the gun show 2/4 and had them on my table. Oldest son got a day off from kid watching and came along.

About noon he realized the gun had spent more time being handled (the 329) than it had spent in its box. Kind of interesting because the last show it had been at before my table partner commented the handlers were going to wear the finish off it. Lots of lookers, no one buying. But then they didn't seem to be purchasing anything else, either. It certainly is a gun people like to handle.
