[gerhard1]

If it is any help, here is thread that I started some time back on my Model 30.

Well, hate to disappoint some folks on here, but I did wind up buying it this morning. I guess to reward me for waiting and debating the site dropped it to $199. I figured there was no way I could pass on that. Even if I wind up having to refinish it then the total cost is well under what I've seen them sell for in better condition than this.

For reference (now that I can let the secret out) this was at Summit Gun Broker. Really good experience since Matt took over from Mark K who retired.

Good find.

I checked their new site last week and didn't see anything of interest. I'll have to try digging into their site a little deeper.

Great snag. I used to look at Summit's site pretty often but I haven't in quite some time now.

Inventory has been coming up slowly but surely. They're on my list of sites that I keep bookmarked and check often. If I have a few minutes to kill I click though and see what's there and sometimes come up with good finds.

The small pits might be to much to fix with a reblue. Just clean it up as much as you can and enjoy it. Steel wool and oil followed by a good carnuba paste wax and it will live another 55 years like a champ!

You did good IMO. I bought a NCSHP Sig 226 in .357 Sig from summit to add to my PD marked gun collection. I got the one that was dropped on the concrete.
