Thanks Mike, I was looking at other guns at the auction. Just took a quick look at both for condition. Saw the four screws on the side plate and knew they wer're somewhat collectable. Both are 95% plus condition. Funny how I was looking to buy something else and just couldn't pass up the price...

The M&P is the C113xx serial number.

Went ot the local gun auction yesterday and got lucky twice. First I picked up a four screw combat masterpiece with just a little blueing rubbed off the front of the barrel for $360. Then a four screw 6 inch M&P in the same condition for $240. Looks to have come from the same collection and just...

Would like to see this model come to life. Reloads would be fast and hard to miss. Shorten the cylinder ala 25-2 to keep the weight down. That should help the notches and window from peening open. Should help with a better double action pull also. They already make an L frame SSR for IDPA. I...

Mike thanks for the info. I found the numbers in both locations. Just getting started into collectibles. The gun looks to be in the same condition as VM's with the same grips. Now I'll have to find out about the Colt 1911 I purchased with this gun. WW11 vintage and came with a Colt 22...

It is stamped K 931XX on the butt. There appears to be two Vs stamped above the SN# inside the crane.

I just bought a K38 with 99% finish for $500. Thought it was a fair price. Didn't notice it was a 5 screww till I got it home. SN#399XX. My friend thinks I stole it for that price. Would like to know approximate value and date of manafacture. Steve

Jerry, California decided to protect us from bad handguns and only allows State approved handguns to be imported into the State. So most nice collectables will be at a premium price. Since the only ones available are what is already in State. Maybe with the recession I'll be able to find a nice...

Looking for one like yours Jerry. I don't like the looks of the new lightweight Kit Guns. Want to save as much weight as possible for those long hikes while hunting. Almost bought a 4 inch Model 60 with adjustable sights. Their alot lighter than the 34 or 63. By the way. Your 43 made me turn...

I've been looking for a very long time for one of these. Found a shooter for $450. Why are these so hard to find? Would like a clean one to add to the collection.
