Easier to tell you here then to start a new thread. If you upload your pictures into an album on your Forum home page you can copy the IMG - the image URL - and just paste it into the thread, like this - and you don't see the URL, you see the image:
Someone taught me that just last year and it makes life so much easier.

Very nice find. Don't run across many flat latch chiefs around here and don't think I've ever seen a nickel one in person.

Hello all,
This is a lgs find, pretty scruffy in display case, cleaned up pretty well! Ser#95161, was hoping for '54 but nearest I can figure maybe '56. Grips match. Shoots well. Jumps right near the top of my favorites list!
WOW---THAT'S A BEAUTY ! ! ! I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT IT CLEANED UP VERY WELL, INDEED. CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT FIND......

Thanks for the comps!
I did get lucky with this one. It's almost like holding "a handful of shine". The best part of the story is the same owner had also sold a 4" nickel '19, also in damn fine condition. It was right next to the little one in the display case. With other eyes watching, I had to act fast. I picked both up at the same time and handed them to the store owner followed by "I'll take em both". He was almost as happy as I was!
Hard to buy two guns in this state (have to wait 30 days in-between) but how often does the sun shine this bright on someone! The Model 19 also cleaned up very nicely so a future post is in order.
