Got one just like it, box and all and wouldn't sell it for that . . .
 
Very nice and at a great price. I keep telling my wife we need to drop buy pawn shops more often.......

Well done.

Great looking revolver. In the box, in that condition,,I'd sure have bought it for that.

..When I was in to BullsEye shooting we had an older gent come into the league shoot on a wednesday evening after the season had just started and asked to join. This was a winter indoor league, 50' NRA Bullseye.
They signed him up and put him on a team,,the team I was on. We didn't have much of a team,,kind of the cast offs that no one else chose. Read that as we weren't very good! But we had fun.

This guy had his pistol in a zippered rug, his hearing protectors & ammo and after a short safety course and range runthrough we were ready to go.
His gun was a HS revolver just as you have only with the shorter bbl.

Plenty of smirks and even laughs from the snooty crowd at the other end of the range line as he took his place with his HS.
After his first relay, his score of 296/300 put everyone in their place.
It was no fluke, that guy could flat out shoot and finished the season w/a mid 290's average IIRC using that revolver.

He refused to switch to a target auto loader or even a 'better' revolver w/ adj sights. He just enjoyed doing what he was doing.,,and we enjoyed having him on OUR team!
 
For that price I gotten it in a heartbeat also very nice.
 
Does that actually have wood grips detailed on the box? I've never seen one without plastic grips. Next time I see one I'll probably buy it as I'm .22 revolverless now. Nice gun by the way.
 
The late holster maker Chic Gaylord spoke very well of this gun. Liked it for practice.

I think it was designed by Harry Seyfried, who later worked for Ruger and may have designed the Charter Arms guns.

My memory is a little hazy on that.

Is that frame aluminum?
 
Good find. Any cheaper and I might have to get a warrant for theft.:D
 
Thanks everybody.I am really starting to get into .22 revolvers looking for others all the time.
