Hi i just recently acquired these 2 old antiques paid $150 for the Baby Russian & $125 for the 38 D.A. 2nd Model did i do good or what i think so. I took them to the range yesterday to try them out and they worked flawlessly i have other topbreaks in my collection too that i shoot. I reload for this S&W 38 ctg. As there blackpowder guns i keep them loaded down with smokeless powder so i dont ruin them i use about 1.8 grs of Win 231 & 158gr. RN bullet with no ill effects pretty accurate up to 25ft.I was pretty impress with the outcome so heres some pics them Enjoy!!... Rick
