For some reason, a lot of folks just don't like to buy the blue ROA's as much as they desire to buy the stainless ones.
That seems to be the direct opposite of how most folks do not desire to buy a stainless Remington and are perfectly happy buying a blue one.

I like 'em both!

stainless is easier to clean,less rust and dishwasher safe

Even though I have blued revolvers, my 2 ROA's are stainless and yes I have used the dishwasher on them and they come out sparkling. Can't really do that withour rusting the blued guns.

hmmm ive never seen one in 7.5 inch barrel that had fixed sights. not sayin they dont make them just saying ive never seen one.it would definitely be worth less to me with non adjustable sights.the blued ones with good sights go for about 400$ around here in like new condition.

Looks like that one is gone.

Ridgerunner:
Cowboy shooters use 'em for shooting the Frontiersman category.
Can't use cap guns with adjustable sights.
Have six of them myownself.
Three with 7.5" barrels, two with 12" barrels, and one with a 3.5" barrel.

Also have two with adjustable sights.

Hey, Dawg. That would be worth a ton of style points to see you go to the line with the two 12 inchers. One of our shooters uses a Walker on one side and a Dragoon on the other.
