Now that's just mean!
Beautiful gun...nice find.
Just 1.5 hours ago I picked up 2 Ruger Super Blackhawks in .44 Magnum, for $450 for the pair. Figured I couldn't pass that up.
Happy New Year!

On Dec 31 I walked into the LGS and saw a 64 no dash. I took it home. He said it came in the day before. I also ordered a Kahr P9. Happy New Year!
No idea at the moment. Probably something I see that I like! That leaves things wide open. Most of my purchases have been opportunistic. Just have to wait and see what pops up in 2012.

Well it's close to this year, picked this up from my FFL Saturday afternoon. Purchased off GB, a grade II VIS. Should be a 1941 production weapon. All six numbered parts match, some holster wear but overall very good condtion.

Charter Bulldog 2.5" 44 special in stainless. I can't afford a 696.
Besides, the Charter is the smallest, lightest 44 around besides the derringers.
It's waiting for me at the transfer dealer.
Already have the Crimson Trace grips (DANG, is that laser bright!) and Mernickle holsters are on the way.
Didn't take me long to discover a 3" N frame is not the perfect carry weapon.
I am a stubborn fan of the 44 so I am going to try the Bulldog.

A Stevens Favorite in .22 with a Ceedmore tang sight for my Granddaughter and I. Couple coats of poly and some wax on the wood combined with the sight made it look like a mini Sharps.
Actually bought it in Oct. and put a few rounds through it before and after the work. Love them .22's and my G-Daughter loves this one. Very safe rifle and extremely accurate!

Model 36 no dash, should arrive at my LGS transfer dealer on Thursday.
I currently own a Model 60 in .357 Mag. I feel like its more of a Chief's Special on steriods. I've always yearned for a good ole' Model 36. There is only one downside, it had Pach's on it in the photos on GB. I contacted the seller and it is a square butt. I can deal with that for now. I'm a pretty good sized guy so I don't think the square vs round butt is really going to be that much of an issue.
