My 520 has only been fired 102 times since leaving the factory.
I've never fired it. Maybe one day I will.

Thank you.

That's an awesome collection. I love .357 Magnums.

Not too long ago I had 20 .357 Magnums. Today I'm down to nine.

And now I'm down to seven.

I like the idea, I prefer the models with adjustable sights. I have a 66 (4"), 686 (4"), and 2-19's (4" and a 6"). Hope to find a 586, 27 (5" preferred) and a 28 in the future. Once I get those, I will look for different barrel lengths in each model. Am I missing anything?

 

[lppd4]

Was able to trade my nephew out of his very nice 586 no dash, no M, 4" and My father in law gave me his Model 28. It was his first duty gun, he bought it used and sometime prior to him owning the gun someone nickel plated the frame, cylinder, sights and barrel and gold plated the hammer, trigger, cylinder release and ejector rod. Not exactly parallel with my taste but a nice gun and it has significant sentimental value. Thought about restoring it to its original matte blue configuration but I will probably keep it as is and pass it down to one of my son's when appropriate

turp_dog,
Great concept

You have gotten most of the pre-lock 357 Magnum revolver model represented

As far as I can see, the only ones still missing are the Models 360 and 386

If you added the post-lock 357 Magnum revolvers that would add the models 327, 520, 619 and 620.

The introduction of the Scandium N-frame is a milestone in the story of the 357 Magnum revolver

While it came at a too late in history, the 7 shot 357 Magnum duty revolver is a notable event in the 357 Magnum story
