Hi, guys and gals I found this Old S&W model 28-2 in my local gun shop. I have been eyeing it for a about a month. She looks to be unfired but stored as it is missing some bluing on the left side over the cylinder. and at a hundred bucks over priced but $500.00 out the door. I decided to save it before someone came along and bought it to throw in the glove box and leave it there.
any way here are 2 pictures on the old girl. I need to find a set of N frame Magnas and maybe fix the rubbed off bluing to make her like new.

You did the right thing. The old gal deserves better than to be locked up in a glove box. BTW, they sell for more than you paid in my area of the country.

In picture #2 you can see a spot over the cylinder where the bluing has rubbed off. Is there a bluing you can do to touch up or do you have to re-blue the whiole gun?

The bluing pens work pretty good.
