Nice score, you're on a roll for sure!
It's a .357, I assume?

yep, .357-- I'm headed to the gun show this morning; The ones here in the springs are not to impressive at all, but it is a good way to spend a morning.

Well, no DW's at the gun show….best I could do was an original unfired Feather Industries AT-22 with 3 mags
.
***Edit -- I just looked this gun over and the only thing I could find for a serial number is A007... Could I have the James Bond edition....?

This is the first I've heard on one of those. Is it made in the US, or somewhere else? Looks like it could be fun, as long as it's not a jamb-o-matic.

Shoot,
Is your stainless 10" a VH? or standard V?

Nope, these are US made right here in Boulder, CO. They were big in the 80's and excellent quality--those are 20 rd mags BTW. I can hardly wait to break it in.

I don't have it here yet, but I believe it is a standard V. My PP is a VH, but that is ok

OK, the barrel showed up today–10″, SS, .357, Vented. No dings, just needs a good cleaning and a nicer nut (slip marks from wrench). Odd thing is the only marking on the shroud is – 357 MAGNUM CTG. – (and it is stamped kind of crooked
) Old style markings, not the newer etching.
No Dan Wesson, no Monson or Palmer, nothing. Did I get the “generic” DW shroud?Possibly a transition period between facilities? I'll take a pic and edit this post tonight.

I believe that could be either a Monson or Palmer. As far as I know they didn't put the place of manufacture on the shrouds. Some have Dan Wesson Arms stamped above the caliber and some don't. I believe all or at least most Norwich guns have laser markings. I kind of wish they had'nt marked the shrouds at all, as many interchange it would be easier to find a full collection. I guess I'm just nuts though. This will just be another puzzle for us to ponder on as we continue to create the most knowledgeable DW site there is.
Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.

Most, if not all of the Palmer gun pics I've seen have been roll marked that way. The Monson guns have Dan Wesson above the caliber designation. Both my FB guns are that way. That's odd that it's crooked, though...maybe that's one of the quality control issues that is talked about now & then?
