I acquired this one from a dealer in Indiana. Except for the slight cylinder dragline, it's 100%. All matching including the stocks.

I really do wish I had a better camera!!

Howdy Folk's,

I will assure everyone there's absolutely nothing
wrong with Frenchy's camera; or his taste in wheelguns.
Very nice indeed, my friend! Enjoy-

Best Wishes,

Actually, it was found on the early 36, 37, 38, and 40's. The latter 3 had three different variations of the "flat latch" during this time. The all went to the modern release you see today, back in 1966.

Thanks for the kind comments fella's. What I meant by a better camera, was one that gave a little sharper detail (more pixels), and the ability to use a macro zoom. Of course, if I bought a higher priced picture box, I'd have to for-go my next pistol!! :D
