The Sunday Smith is up.

TJP said...: So there she is. What a beautiful gun. That cylinder gap looks tight.

I regret not grabbing up more fixed-sight Smiths when I had the chance. I've never spotted anything like that, or the elusive M58, though many M10s passed under the glass while I waited for the right one. Dumb.; 12:38 AM, March 30, 2009

No, but good accounting makes for good friendships.

I could probably settle up tomorrow by coming up off my LNIB '76-vintage Model 37, but I'm going to crawfish for another week to see if I can't find another solution; I've got trade goods and savvy, so we'll see what I can come up with. :); 11:01 PM, March 30, 2009
