My first 65 !

Picked up this 65-3 4 inch for 400, came with a box of ammo and speed loader , I think I did OK ...

I have its cousin in blue, a 13-4 4".

Paid the same.

Great revolvers!

Shoot it in good health.

You did good

A fixed sight K frame is a fine gun. It will handle a plethora of ammunition to fit a variety of situations. It fits most any hands by simply swapping stocks, and most situations by selecting the proper holster. Properly cared for, it will easily last 100 years.

I have seven in various forms.

I carry this one when hunting. Everything you need and nothing more.

In case you were wondering, your 65 would look a lot like this with Grashorn stag stocks.

The M65 is just a Model 10 dressed up in shiny clothes and chambered to a longer round (hey, just like the 10-6). You cannot go wrong with any of these variations of the M10. "Everything you need, nothing more."

Are you sure it's not a 65-2. The 65-3s eliminated the pinned barrel and the recessed cylinders. I'd love to have a pinned and recessed 65!

Sometimes I tend to one of those fixedsighted K-frames but as being just over 50 years old I have some difficulties to clearly see the front sight.

But I like the appearance of the fixedsighted sixguns.

I noticed that too; OP's is definitely pinned, and from the looks of headspace, recessed, too. Could be a -2, or an early -3 transitional. Nice find, either way.

Sorry

Sorry guys it is a -2, had 3 on my brain for some reason !
