Baby Python!

I worked on a federal contract in Nevada in the early 80's. Had to carry a 38 Special (loaded with 158 grain round-nose lead ammo). Bought a 4" Diamondback for the task. Cool looking gun with the Python barrel on a Detective Special/Police Positive frame. Finish was just about as good as the Pythons. Odd shaped uncomfortable grips. Action was classic Detective Special stiff. Diamondbacks now fetch almost as much as Pythons. Must have done its job well, I am still here.
