Requesting pictures of well-worn, broken-in handguns.

This .32 Short Colt Pocket Positive was built in 1914. I picked it up at a pawn shop. I wonder who owned it before...
It shoots great and it has a smooth action.

I'll put my old Model 38 up for inspection.......

Is that.. Is that Jesus? No it's just a thread resurrected from the dead.

These should be sufficiently worn.

Perhaps the best argument yet for a polymer gun....

Yeah, well, here's perhaps the best argument AGAINST a polymer gun...

As for this thread, I'll contribute my 1988 Smith 64-5, previous owner said it was carried by a security guard for many years, and had taken this picture before I bought it from him:



It now does bedroom duty in my home with the addition of a Hogue Monogrip, loaded with 158gr LSWCHP:

This is the Ruger Standard I have had since I was 11. It was used when I got it in '82 but it still shoots like a dream, and there is nothing wrong with 9+1.

Used by the last train robber in Wyoming

Norinco carried for several years. I will carry this one for a few more months until a friend refinishes it and adds new sights, then from now on.

are they real? I assumed they were plastic. Still cool, though.

Iggy,

If you don't mind, I'd love hear the story about the robber lost the gun and you came into it.

Best,
Will
