a couple new ones

[Gary@CCWsafe]

For the last couple years I have been trying to buy vintage S&W's and sticking them back. Kind of a 401k plan. I blew my discretionary cash for the next few months. Again. Sorry for the iPhone photography.

Not pictured is Colt Lawman MKV. Trying to decide whether to keep it or send it to Gunbroker.

Man, those are beautiful. I’ve had a few that I let go over the years that I’m kicking myself for. I had a little model 61 like yours. It’s on the kicking myself list.

When all the plastic guns hit the market, revolver prices took a nose dive. I built up my ‘401’ at that time.

I had a little gun shop back in the late 80's when the transition happened. If I had kept every SW traded in I would never have had to work again. Sold them for $25-$30 profit each.

I can help with your dilemma.

Don't send it to Gunbroker, send it to MacFromOK.

Nice collection btw.

He ment 80's not auto's, you have to forgive him. He is getting "OLD" and forget's his meds.

Lol, '80s/autos... maybe it's a hippie/flower-power interchange thingy.

Nice nickel 61, they are fun little pistols to shoot. I have a 61-3 in blue and it goes to the range with me almost every time. The 61 had an interesting history, early versions had a number of issues.

Did it some with the box and "rug"?

That 4" model 27 is nice.

not sure how spellcheck changed 80's to autos.
