Randy1911,
That's a great price for a 14-1. FYI - sometime in the early 80s, S&W stopped 'inning' their revolver barrels and went to a crush fit. usually when
a model gets a -1, -2, and so on, it means S&W changed the way they make
the model, usually meaning they found a cheaper way to produce them. THis doesn't mean the next way they did it was inferior but some methods don't work out, some did. I think a 14-1 DOB is late '50s/early 60s so take of that one, you're the next custodian so to speak.
