That would make a great wet sand and polish project!

I give it a higher value... owning a blued 67 (?) Same frame targrt sights 325 sounds reasonable... trade interests?

I would trade for a Glock 19.

Thanks guys, no doubt its a cool gun, just not a revolver kind of guy. The other side turned out much better just the cylinder is a job.

I could not see the picture very well on my phone but after closer examination I think BIKER13 is right on the button it's going to take some work...

Yeah I don't think that's going to work,

I have never owned a revolver before. Picked this up this 66, .357 with a package deal. What do you think its worth? I may keep it as a extra, does have a little surface rust but no pitting. I got a lot of it off with steel wool and vinegar.

I vote shoot it first. But whahDoIknow…

 

[GAgunLAWbooklet]

Yeah, I'd shoot it!

Then, you think you can only get $300 for it, I really think it's best to keep it and use it as a spare, a back up, or something to arm a friend or neighbor in case the SHTF.

Revolvers are pretty easy to use with minimum training and you don't have to teach the newbie how to clear a jam!

P.S. If you shoot this gun and you generally like it but the grip feels weird,
you could try a slimmer finger-grooved rubber grip instead of those blocky presentation type wood grips.

Several Folks I know passed their LEO shooting tests with high marks using one of those in the 80’s-90’s.
