I know this should probably be posted in the "Auction" section, but thought it would get more attention here.

Just came across this on Gun Broker, Serial Number 3 complete pistol pack, with extras. Looks like it is almost unfired, hardly any turn ring on the cylinder.

Yep - it's a nice pack but too priced too high along wtih most of the seller's other stuff.  It's been on GB I think for about a year now.

This is maybe the third time around DWF for FCP-3. This is NOT Serial Number 3, this is one of a series of specially numbered guns/packs sold to friends, and friends of friends of the early Dan Wesson Arms. These folks ordered DW's with their initials or other interesting Serial Numbers. Somewhere out there IPANA-1 (Ipana toothpaste) exists, made for a woman named Beverly who had very bright, white teeth (her nickname was "Chiclets").

FCP-3 was originally transferred to the designated owner on May 18,1982 through an FFL in Parma Heights, OH. River Dodger has been trying to unload this one for a while

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

My dad had and I still have a model 15 with his initials followed by the number 1. We at one time were a pretty high volume DW dealer.

Good Lord, it has been up there so long, i forgot it was RiverDodger's.  BTW, based on the number of barrels he has up, I think he won that 33 barrel set (plus extras) at the RIA auction. Whatcha think?

Could be a possibility . No one here has taken credit for that snag.
