I was looking for a inexpensive 38sp to plink with and found this on GunBrkr that came out of our own HacketstownG&A (hi Walt). This was one of a large estate sale that unfortunatly had the storage room flood and damaged a lot of the guns, including this one. However it was minimal & cosmetic being that the bag it was in got wet, not like it was drowned. The good news is that most of the guns were advertised as un-fired (out of the factory) and I believe that applies here. Pristine bore & chambers, an almost invisable flash line over the cone and basically a non-existant turn line on the cylinder being whats there now is from me admiring an incredable SA trigger pull. I just had to re-touch a few blue spots but the lock side is LNIB.  A few dribbles did drip into the action causing just some faint cosmetic rust but I cleaned out the action anyway. And the boxes were stored seperate and got destroyed. Not too shabby for a 50 yr old gun.So just thought I'd share a few pics before she starts her new life attacking paper.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Made sometime between 1961 and 1967. The diamond magna grips should number to the gun. Anything else interesting there? N-frames maybe?

 

Nice catch.

 

Adios,

Beautiful. I saw that collection being sold on gunbroker. Sad what happened to many of 'em, though it looks like you did EXTREMELY well. Good luck with it!

Well done!

 

What's the difference between the 15-2 and a 15-3?

Numbers all match , my favorite # is$290

Double congrats then!

Well done!

Rear sight screw was relocated on the -3. Diamond grips were gone in 1968.

Well done!

290....so jealous

When I started on the police department the model 15 was what all the genuine (and make believe) pistoleros carried. A friend of mine had a 2" he won a lot of "snub nose" matches with.

That's a beaut!

congrats!!
