Thumbs up It's been a good n-frame/large-bore week!--added pics

Sunday I managed a to buy from our local Cabela's a very clean M29-4 with a five inch barrel (I'll pick it up later today and will post pictures when I do)...

Today, I was offered two .41 Magnums from a friend's friend. The first one, a 657-4 with 7.5" barrel will get shot without a scope as I already have one with a scope...

The other was a M57-3 with a 6" barrel...it will get shot tomorrow afternoon.

The two Leupold 2x pistol scopes were offered at $100/ea!

Somehow I managed to end up with a tad less than $425 in each of these three revolvers so I'm a pretty happy guy!

Bob

When I get offers like that I am broke and eating beans!
When I have money it seems liek there's nothing available.
Congrats on some excellent buys.

You are dreaming!! When you wake none of this will
be true. Then you will have to go to the doctor to get
your head screwed back on right, and this will cost big
bucks. You want be able to buy another gun for years.

Joni,
A shopping trip with you would be a pleasure.

Don,
I have to admit, it's been a whirl-wind. I'm very lucky. Earlier in the month I somehow picked up two n-frame snubbies...a 657 no-dash and a 624!

Not me. I get unlucky all the time though. Does that count?
Too bad you live so far away. I could to rub your head for some of that good luck. At least I think that is the procedure. Otherwise, that would just be weird.
