I know we are a group of collectors but,,,
One of my idiosyncrasies is both "kit guns" and model 28 HPs look better to me with a fair amount of wear on them . They deserve the respect of being carried into the questionable circumstances they were designed for . I'm fine with all other models being pristinely preserved but these little dudes ought to be out ,living the life ,,,, and showing it.

A raggedy ole mod.51

Yup,,, some not so pretty mod 28 around here too.
