Those are nice 1911s !
Yes, it was good meeting you there...always good to meet some of the online friends.It was nice to meet you at the show Jon. To bad I was in the process of packing up or we could have visited more. Anyhow I looked at that DW seemed like a good solid revolver.
I didn't notice the Ruger...yeah, 845 is plenty for a 600 dollar gun, LOL.Nice find, Jon! I went about 0930 Saturday and it was really crowded, and difficult to get to all the tables without being a little too intimate with strangers.
One fellow on the back wall from the entrance had a nice Old Model Ruger Blackhawk .357 with a 9mm cylinder. I thought $845 was a little rich, but I also remembered I just don’t shoot the old XR3RED grip frames worth a hoot.
There were several round ball molds at a table towards the center, but nothing I was interested in.
Good to see another show in the area, though. Sorry I missed you!
Before I took the DW out to the range a second time (on Wednesday morning after a Dr appt),SNIP...
as far as the hard hammer pull, check the sides of the frame and see if the trigger is rubbing,
they usually ain't but it does happen.
the other thing that happens is the rim of the case will rub on the shroud making it hard to turn the cylinder.
so will the ejection pin shroud being a little loose.
I have a 4" model 15, the "pork chop" style. It has treated me OK but I own and shoot too many Smiths. My trigger is good but not great. I think you got a good deal.
