I seem to have caught the Wheel gun bug. Anyone looking to sell or trade a .357 let me know.

Ohhh, yes sir you caught a bad case of it. The first wheelgun you bought is probably still smoking from the testing session and you're already drooling over the next? WooHoooo! I knew you'd come around, man. 'Course you know there's a name for your affliction...smallordinanceitis...and there is no cure. ;-)

Well the one I got is so dang nice I dont want to shoot it too much. You'l lsee in the am it' looks like it spent most of it's 36 years i na sock drawer. The lady at S&W said it's a Pre-Model 36 and only 1470 were made. While it's no collector I will try to be nice to it :grin:

I've got a Ruger GP-100 in stainless steel with a 6" barrel I'd consider selling or trading.

If you clean it regularly, store it properly, and don't drop it (why would anyone do that unless they had a heart attack?), you won't take off its value. It's not some tin-can cheapo.

That little S&W Diode got is really nice. The cylinder looked as if it hadn't been turned much. Like he said, looks like it has been in a sock drawer for many years. It also shot very well. I'm a lousy shot and I put 5 rounds into about a 3" group at 7yards. He picked a real winner.
