Nice job. Glad you figured it out. That is a dandy looking Dan.

if you find one...what's your plan?

Nice 'Lil Dan congrats! You will like shooting that one, and good job on the pic. I use Windows Office Picture Manager to open and resize my pics, its fast, only a few clicks and its done. It even has 'large web picture' as an option, 640x480.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Scorpio, Thanks for tip on windows resizer. I will try that. I used a temp program found after a google search. Some of the "free" ones looked like a lot of hidden bad stuff could be there
Dave, I dont know if you have opened it up before but the gun really responded to a modified AVE JOE treatment. The parts seem to be a bit more position sensitive than my other DWs but get them just right and its a fantastic action.

Nice swap... Somebody came out on the lesser side I think..

I just need to take the time to do a maintenance on her! Heck I just grab the twin and shot her! I am wondering what you traded?

Hey Dave, I have wanted a lil dan and a friend was going to sell his on Gunbroker. He has helped me and made good trades with me in the past. I offered a 22- V6 with target grip, extra barrel assembly, another wood grip, and DW soft case to trade. I had about $575 invested into these items....he can sell them if he wants for $900-$975. So who got the deal 
The cool thing with a good trade is that both parties are happy.... I could not afford to pay the money on GB if Steelworker or DrBanner or anyone else got bidding on it. and I didnt have to pay shipping, FFL, Tax.

Question for you lil' danners - ignoring the barrel length and grip, is the frame size and cylinder diameter smaller or similar to the model 14/15s? I'm wondering if there is any size advantage for these for carry, specifically IWB. Thanks!
Nice shooter!

The lil dan is considerably smaller than my 2 1/2in model 14. Mostly because it is downsized overall to a 5 shot 38 special plus P and not 6 shot 357 mag. It really has the perfect size and balance for accuracy and CC IWB......IMHO
I just wish it had nicer grips- HUGELK

Oh boy, Roger. You don't want to see the grips LB made for mine. OK, maybe you do:
If you like these, maybe you can convince LB to put you on his wait list.

That is not a bad at all you both scored and it kept in the family! Now on grips, Mike has got the ones I need! His twins look good. I came up with an off brand that fit the Lil Dan still in rubber though!
My thought is Wesson finally made a small frame, gun mags compared it to the SW model 60 and one of the colts. I will have to scan in the report I read on them! DW has a small, medium, large, then the huge framed Supers! I wish that they had gone with the plans to make 3 & 4 "barrels plus later the Lil Dan in 357mag, w/ adjustable sights!
These Lil Dans are hoot and yes 5 shot 38+p packs a handful!

Sweet deal on the trade. I have only traded a few times but each time it has been a positive experience. You both did well on that trade.

Hi Roger --
Those grips are both zebra wood. The one on the right is the normal color; the one on the left is dark because LB happened to find a piece of unusually dark zebra wood. Unfortunately he has no more of the dark.

Mike,
All LB grips look so good. I think that a zebra wood with a set of the small silver DW emblems would look sweet. I have a set of them to use. Ill get to the top of the waiting list eventually
