Did the very early 1988-89 GPs have any issues I should know about before plunking down the cash for a '89 blued GP100 3' 357? The one I'm considering looks like it's spent it's life in a safe.

If it looks good, locks up solidly
and the action feels decent, does
the cylinder spin freely, it's
likely to be OK with no internal
buildup of soot, grime (such as
in the cylinder channel). Trigger
on those early models might be
around 12-14 pounds double
action. If DA feels much lighter,
most likely a spring change has
been performed.

It's clean as a whistle and tight. I'll be at LGS when it opens, money in hand.
Remember though on the 171's there is No hole in the back strap frame to push in the plunger in on the trigger assembly. Have to us a Allen Wrench (short end). They were some of the best GP's paid 319.00 dollars for mine at Walmart in 1989 and still have as about 30,000 rounds on it.

Thanks for the tip on the plunger. That's the kind of thing I wanted to know.
