Latest acquisition, Chief's Special.

Stopped in at a local pawn shop, there she sat unwanted in the case.
Had to take her home.
93XXX serial number.
My first J frame.

Very nice pre-36! I'd put it at 1956 ship date according to SCSW4.

 

[Cal44]

Looks like a nice one. Like the flat cylinder latch and diamond grips.

I have one also. A little newer than yours.

 

[Waveski]

Your first J frame is a flat latch Chief's ... very classy debut in J-Land.

 

[Evil One]

Thanks, saw it in a pawn shop and couldn't pass it up.

Great find!

Congrats.

 

[beagleye]

That's a real handy package.

 

[gmborkovic]

That poor, lonely girl found a new home. Bet the grips match.
Good snag, congrats. Mike

 

[Valmet]

Very nice OP- J frames have a tendency to multiply!

 

[NavySCPO]

Beautiful! Nice find and a flat latch to boot.

I can't speak for anyone else, but the J frame Chiefs fit my hand like a glove. It's no wonder they have become so popular, compact size, great caliber, and so easy to carry on the hip, ankle, or in a pocket.

For concealed carry, or just fun at the range, not many better, enjoy!

 

[JohnnieBoy]

I gotta ask.... how many greenbacks did she set you back to break her out of jail?

 

[Evil One]

$330 out the door.

[bigggbbruce]

$330 put the door.


Jim

Nice..

Probably one of those stores that would rather sell Glocks...

 

[Evil One]

Small town pawn shop, bought a full build ATEi M&P 9c for $300 there.
As long as they make a profit they are happy.
