Perfection may be overrated

[sodacan]

Patina is a dirty word to some collectors, but this shooter grade model 28-2 (1967) is one of my favorites. Not a speck of rust, pitting or freckling in the finish, and mechanically perfect, this revolver is a great shooter. To me, beautiful with its imperfections.

Good, honest wear. I like it!

Those stocks look like they are Herrett targets. I love the model 28; you have a nice one.

 

[ameridaddy]

Many years of honest use, no abuse or neglect, a no-frills, workmanlike gun. I like it.

Significant thinning of the finish, but not a rusty piece. The Herrett's Shooting Star skip line checkered stocks give it a distinctive level of class. I'm thinking it is an excellent shooter.

 

[OutWest50]

Absolutely nice!

Perfection is impossible.
Nice gun. Enjoy it as it is.

There is no such thing as perfection in a manufactured product. Perfection is just a concept. If you think something is perfect it means that you just haven't looked at it closely enough.

Very nice looking sixgun

 

[series guy]

That Model 28 sure looks perfect to me.

 

[C Islander]

Looks real good to me!

 

[bananaman]

Nothing like a 28! I have a 28 no dash from 1960. S serial#. My 1st online gun purchase. Never regretted it! Bob

 

[CajunBass]

What's not to like about that one?

 

[sodacan]

These two are 1st year HP's that keep company with the first one. I shoot them as well, but because they're prettier, only on formal occasions.

My 28-2 and 27-2 are revolvers that see use, may not be pretty to some but, look great to me.

I agree sodacan to me that's what they're all about and to shoot them is when you really appreciate them.

 

[RKmesa]

I agree with sodacan, there is something compelling and attractive about a well-used (but not abused) Highway Patrolman...

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Looks like a perfect candidate for hard-chrome.

I think you missed the point.

Go tell that to Glock!

Now that's a classic workhorse!
