Talking Let's Have a Great Western Arms Thread!...I'll Start

I've only known about Great Western Arms Co. for about 8 or 9 years following my first GWACo. find, a 4 3/4" Frontier model in .38 Special from 1957.

I recently acquired two more Frontier models. This time, they have 5 1/2" bbls. and are roll-marked .38 Special (ca. 1960 DIY Kit Gun) and .357 Magnum, (circa 1961) although both will chamber the .357 Magnum round. This has been encountered a number of times with Great Westerns bearing the .38 Special roll-mark.

All three are in very nice condition, with similar finish and grips.

Now, let's see yours!

-Bill
