Years ago bought a S&W model 15 which was a shooter, it had seen better days. I sold it knowing that someday I wanted a more collector specimen.
Well, two weeks a ago I ran across one that looked as if it would be just the ticket, only problem being the seller and I live 3 hours apart. Knowing I had a trip planned to the area I asked if he'd be willing to deliver to a local FFL so I could pick it up on my way through. Conversations were had, schemes were hatched, we came to an agreement. He delivered it to his local dealer, I picked it up Friday.
I'm usually reluctant to send someone money and hope the gun I get is as described; I'm thrilled with gun, it's even better than described. It comes with the original box, papers, tools and grips. A slight turn line and a touch of muzzle wear consistent with leather holster contact. The paperwork in the box was printed in 1955 but I'm not certain that's when this one was made.
In any event, enough talking, time for a couple share pictures
