Allen,

Sorry, being late getting with you.

First, I want to say thanks for all the kind comments.

Second, you sure have a nice lookng 13 yourself.

I too will probably keep it mint in the box locked away in the vault. Darn it is too pretty to shoot. Besides, I have over fifty different handguns to choose from to shoot.

Wow, that nickle 13 is spectacular! The the other 13s are great as well. I wish I had one. I really like fixed site K-frames. Alas, I only have two stainless steel versions; M64-2" (.38) and my go to the grave, M65-5, 3", which is my favorite.

Wow, that nickle 13 is spectacular!

If your referring to ky40601's, I BELIEVE it's blue based on its box label and the photo of it in the box.

Ky40601, please correct me if I'm wrong!

Congrats...

Very nice find...good luck with her !!

The second firearm I ever purchased was a nickel plated Model 13-3...3" bull barrel...bought to go with my first purchase, a Model 19 Combat Magnum 6" barrel ( tt ts rr wo ).

Paid $185 back in the late 70's.

Gotta love them K frames !!
