What are the chances of finding 2 Nickel 4" Triplelocks with serial numbers only 129 didgets apart! I have not gotten my hands on it yet, but its in the mail. It has the 3 line address/patent dates on the side of the short barrel, the wrong grips, and locks up tight. Its been refinished in nickel but there is no "N" or "B" on the barrel. All numbers match It was misidentified as to model. This one (photo) is being restored mechanically as a project gun and will be engraved at some point. The new one is in much better condition and I will post photos when it gets here. Christmas came early a

Triplelock .44

The New Century came in from OK today. It is refinished with some fadeing of the 3 line address on the side of the barrel, probably due to holster wear before refinish. Same pattern on the lettering on the other side. It locks up tight and should make a good shooter, a bit pricy at $800 but it is a triplelock. Serial number is 13465, only 129 didgets from the 1st photo TL. It was listed as a 2nd model 44HE. It has no "B" or "N" anywhere on it. The letter to Roy Jinks will go out in the morning mail. This gun came from the Fort Smith, AR area over in OK.
