from gun stores, any of them! Today I needed to get out and get some fresh air, with the snow, cold this past 2 weeks, the walls were getting too close. When I walked into my friends place, his co-worker walked up, asked me if I still liked Smiths, he reaches under the counter and produced 2 zippered gun rugs, UH OH, I know this program. The first one he pulled out was a model #14, 6" .38 Spl, 98%, I about fell off the stool I was on… couldn't believe my luck. The second revolver he pulled out, a model #17 6" .22, 98-99% now I knew I wasn't anywhere near awake yet ! Both were on consignment, I told him to tell the guy I'd offer $XXX for the #14, 2 phone calls later, deal struck. I'm still not realizing this guys ! I came home, told the wife I'd bought a new revolver, also told her about the #17, .22 revolver. Hope you're sitting down, she told me to call the guy at the store, if they still had it, she'd get the monies by Tue., "I'll get that one for you too Honey." The #14 has been shot about 200 times, partridge front sight, target hammer and trigger, beautiful bluing, only Rt side at end of muzzle very slight wear. The #17, partridge front sight, oversized grips, target hammer and trigger, if shot at all, not much, cylinder face is pristine. This is day that I'll remember forever, unreal day for me.
