Welcome to DWF, and congrats on snagging a good one! The fixed barrels don't seem to show up much, I recently bought a Palmer 715 with 3" barrel, I will post pics when it arrives.
Give us a range report when you have a chance, and the guys here all love

ok ok here are the pics from the trade. i havnt taken any of my own as of yet. and i shot it the day we made the trade and every cylinder full i put 6 out of 6 inside the 10 ring on a 25 yard slow fire pistol target at 25 yards. i shot 38 specials and 357's and i can not believe how light the recoil was. the 38's felt like a 380 and the 357 felt like 38's!!!! i think i have found a new favorite wheel gun!!!! any idea of approx. dollar value? not that i will ever sell this baby it would just be nice to know what they go for. everyone i have showed it to wants to buy or trade for it. with that!!!! lol

For someone who does not know DW, and especially fixed barrel DW, maybe the "value" is not so much. For someone that wants a rare(er) Dan Wesson it is easily a $500 gun.
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.
