I have seen some beautiful firearms on these pages and hopefully you don't mind but how about the ugly or truck gun page. I bought this revolver about 10 years ago for 65 bucks on GB with my C&R FFL it was all apart in a bag. When I got it there was even a squib stuck in the barrel (I didnt know that) . I think the shipping was 25 bucks pretty funny. I have more revolver parts grips etc than I know what to do with. I got the squib out and replaced what I could with new old parts that I had, even a target trigger. Blued it next to the wood stove with just liquid oxpho. I shoot it regulary and it drives tacks. The new old grips were just sent to me by a good friend in AZ ( he said now you can make that Ugly Duck pretty), whe he comes home he always want to got to the range and asks that I bring this beater. The grips top left # to the gun, early 50's gun.

So show us the uglies, Sorry Sunday AM coffee again.

Those are great shooters I have seen dozens of them in my days, I saw a set once that had different length barrels, they never lasted long at my gunstore when you took them in from estates.
I have a couple of them and they are still as tight as the day they came off the line.
