Hello,
This is my first post in this forum. I'm quite familiar with different firearms and have owned a few semiauto pistols, but no revolvers (have one, but its a war trophy and not a shooter).
I've been looking for one for a little while, but most that I wanted had issues or were out of price range. I wanted a range and house gun that the missus could shoot.
Well, I found this 1993 DAO Model 64 in pieces on another site and bought it from a member there. It is apparently a LEO or security turn-in; the finish is pretty rough and it has a rack number or something EP'd on it.
Picked it up from the FFL and I put it together and inspected it the next day. First pic is how I found it (seller pic). Had to make a cylinder bolt plunger for it, as that was missing. Put on a set of pachmayrs because that's probably what would have come on it, and took it shooting. Second pic is how it sits currently. A little bit of a gamble, but it is all there and shoots great. I love it!
