Colt Lawman MKIII Snubbie

Very nice. Looks like new.

Very nice collector's piece.

It is in fine condition for sure. You don't plan to shoot it, do you? Doing so will lower it's value.

NIce find, MKIII snubs aren't on every table at the gun show.......

a few rounds, it's not a range gun.

Just be careful. Adding any wear to that gun will decrease it's collectors value. I wouldn't shoot it or carry it much, if at all, since it is in such fine collector's condition.

Freaking sweet Colt! There's too many projects on the table at the moment for a new gun but if I get a good trade option I may go for one.

Love that Lawman Mk.III! Had both a Mk.III and a MK.V with 4" barrels but would have liked to have had one of the snubnose versions too. Thanks for sharing.

I owned a two inch barrel Lawman, nickel plated, some years ago. Nice shooter with standard and +P .38 Special ammo. A real flame thrower with magnum rounds which is to be expected. You made a nice purchase. That is a stout and beautiful piece.

sweet!
Shoot and enjoy it, if that's your wont.

I used to have one like that years ago. Talking 40 years.... Bit heavy for a 2 inch .357 but it was STRONG and shot right where the sights looked.

don't dry fire that model ! The sintered parts in the firing pin are known to break and I don't know who can repair it anymore. If you dry fire it use good snap caps. Live ammo will not hurt it either, it will last a looooong time. These are very nice guns and yours is pretty.
They were also known as "ear wax guns" when a magnum round goes off in that 2" barrel

I picked my snub Lawman Mk3 in much more carried condition but mechanically excellent fir $349 and thought i stole it. Great guns. Comparable to an L frame Smith.
