Default Just a nice find 15-3

Yesterday was a beautiful day here I cant believe I am saying that it was 7 degrees but the sun had power. It just seemed like a good day than it got even better. I deal with a Large awesome sporting goods store Jays in Clare MI.
I was dropping off some info and as usual I stopped and checked in the used guns and there she was.
Not a safe queen but a very nice shooter grade 15-3
It was 300.00 plus tax (I cant buy a Taurus for that)
I have a few 15s but...



One gun I truly regret selling was a 15 with 8 3/8in barrel. I bought new in 87 or 88 (when I was a Ladd) I couldn't hit a barn with it my friend could. I should have kept it. I have come to believe that 15s with a 4in barrel just balance wonderful. When I take out a new shooter I usually bring a pre model 18 a model 15 and a Glock 17L I think it really shows quite a range of our sport without huge kickers.

It topped off a good week. A local shop was holding a nickel Buckmark target. I picked that up
If I was a Bond villain I would be Nickelfinger
I love Nickel guns
My favs are
Series 70 Colt 1911 with onyx grips (a true Bar B Q gun)
Nickel Python
Nickel 29 4in

The search for more continues I hope I never loose that special feeling of what I think is a really great find
