This is my first post and my first revolver. I found this Dan Wesson while at a local outdoors shop that happened to be having a 4th of July sale w/ 10% of everything in the store.

I remember being a young fella in the 70's with my dad and looking in the case at another long since closed sporting goods store. Remembered the big revolver set with all the barrels and thinking someday I sure would like to have one of those. It was all .22 and .410 for me back. I was just a kid. Fast forward to a couple weeks ago looking around for a new gun I says to the young lady working behind the gun counter.."What about used guns"? She said.."I don't know what we have they move pretty quick". So we went to the end of the counter and this is what I saw.

Dan Wesson .357 15-2 with target sights, 3 barrels, 3 grips, belt buckle, tools and paperwork in a non original  but still doable case. I told the young lady w/o any hesitation ..SOLD... And got 10% off the steal of a price they had on it. She said "normally used guns don't get any extra discounts but today they do"...Picked it up for what I have since seen some barrels sold for on "the bay". I'm a happy camper. 20160628_131804Dan-Wesson.jpg

Congratulations. A nice beginning. Bet you start cruising gun shops looking for others. Whatever you do, don't look at Gunbroker or you will be lost
