Bought myself a nickled M57 from an ex cop in Texas.
It arrived at my dealer today and, after eating lunch and running some errands, I picked it up about two. It's in great shape. The former owner killed a deer and two wild pigs with it, but it doesn't really show that it has been in the woods. There's a very minor turn line.
I like nickel guns and this one will look great next to the nickel M58 I grabbed up a few years ago. I got several compliments on it at the gun store. The gunsmith was particularly impressed with the action.
I found almost no movement either way when I cocked the hammer and tried to budge the cylinder. It's got a target hammer and smooth target trigger with a light smooth pull. The wood grips are nice, but I'll probably replace the with Pachmayr Decelerators, since I shoot better with rubber grips.
The .41 Magnum is turning me into a collector. This is my seventh including two Ruger Redhawks and a Marlin 1894FG.
I may not be able to shoot it until Monday. It could be a long weekend.
