Gun too nice to shoot?

Finished challenged guns that shoot like lasers are the most fun you can have, especially at public ranges. BTW, the giant gorilla paws on the "hand model" in those pics make that 586 look like a J-Frame. That's a guy who can pocket carry a duty revolver!
 
Shoot a 50 rd group every week

Shoot that thing as often as possible.

I'd run 50 rounds of 38 special once a week just for the fun of shooting groups.
 
The outside looks bad, but if the insides are free of rust and pitting, then it's a good shooter and possibly a good project firearm.
 
Clean it, shoot it, and carry it. I once had a S&W 10 that was very pitted, but it still was a great shooter and carry/truck/hiking/camping gun/. I miss that gun! You won't have to worry about handling marks or scratches.
 
I purchased a Model 66 (no dash) from another retired cop who got it new in 1973 and put three rounds through it, put it back in the box and into a safe it went. I put some lube into it and ran over 200 rounds of magnum & .38 through it and plan on lots more range time for this gem. Any gun I own will get range time sooner or later.
