Mike, I have to agree with you 100%. I had a nice supply of .45 Auto Rim brass and reloaded them with a 230 gr. FMJ bullet to GI specs. I have regreted selling it for the last 20 years. It was sold to a shop in upstate NY. I wonder who has it now? S/N was 460,000 (that's the exact number). It was still like NIB when I parted with it.

This one had been a "grail" gun. I picked it up a few months ago. It's a really sweet shooter. It was produced right toward the end of the 3.5" models. The 4" model replaced both the 3.5" and 5" models. The "ivory" stocks were made by Charles Spresser.

I haven't seen a lot of 3 1/2" versions with a target hammer and trigger. Very nice gun.Last edited by Art; 07-29-2013, 05:50.Comment

I have a really nice N frame 357 five inch barrel that was given to me by a very sweet lady , it is pretty darn accurate and a nice piece of work to look at . It has been worked over and has the smoothest double action I have ever fired .
As for the most accurate , the Dan Wesson was something else , sometimes when I had my ducks in a row it would shoot one fat cluster at fifty yds open sights . But it was just to much trouble to keep tuned , back then I would shoot three hundred to five hindered rds a weekend and would have to have it tuned three to four times a year .
I also had a Colt officers target model Six inch barrel 38 spl with windage sights in the rear and elevation on the front , with wad cutters it was one accurate pistol .
Pulled a shot off with it one day that I have never forgotten , an old friend , my son , and myself where riding down the road and saw a fox trotting across a field about a hundred yds away , I told my friend to stop the car and he thought I was about to waste a bullet . I held about a foot high and full body lead . Gun cracked and that fox rolled end over end with feet sticking in the air when he stopped . I was smiling ear to ear . Went through the shoulders . That was with semi wad cutter hollow point . That is one gun I have kicked myself many a time for selling . KennethLast edited by aintright; 08-10-2013, 07:24.Comment
