    Cataract Surgery Question

    I had this exact surgery done in 2019. Cost me $100 per eye. Dome about 4 months apart. I know have 20/20 in both eyes, for distance. I go to the dollar store and buy a few pair of "cheaters" for reading, close up work etc. They last about 6 months or so before I break them but no big deal...

    Fourth model straight line target

    What a beautiful gun. I've got one that shipped 5-1-29, S# 1132. Went to a hardware store and sold to them for a whopping $20.85 Mine is not as nice as yours but it has the same kind of box and interior. They are a lot of fun to shoot. When I take mine to the range I routinely get reminded...

    .38-44 Heavy Duty

    These transitional were made 1946 to 1950. Serial number range is S62496 to S75206 So even though S75415 is a bit out of the range it may still be a transitional model. Those grips look like sharp shoulder and would have been on late production Transitionals. They started in 1948 and...

    Factory refinish

    Factory Refinish As long as you know you will not get the same blue color or anything close to it or quality workmanship that was originally applied to your revolver, a factory refinish will be ok. There are a couple of firms that can do a much better job, at a higher price of course.

    14-3 decision

    14-3 Another way to look at it might be, a model 14 is a very accurate target revolver The addition of a box, especially if it is the original box, hopefully with tools, docs etc probably adds $100 + dollars to the value and if it is a documented factory SAO that might even add more value...

    Did you use your 66-2 when you robbed the LGS of that beautiful 19-3? In my neck of the woods, that is a very good price.

    K38 combat masterpiece

    K38 CM You snagged a real nice one. Can't tell exactly from the photo but looks like this one has the .500 target hammer. Those sharp shoulder magnas ain't too shabby either. That style went away sometime in 1952 Good honest wear, can't beat that. Enjoy

    Stopped at toy store and 4566 followed me home.

    I've had mine for about a dozen years, only it's the TSW version. Just the right size and so much fun to shoot. I can actually shoot this one better than I can my 4506, Remington Rand or US&S 45's.
