I was leafing through the 2009 Annual American Handgunner and saw a Dan Wesson Small Frame and Alaskan Guide listed in the Buyers Guide.

Does anyone know if they are planning to re-introduce these fine sixguns, or was it likely a misprint in the magazine?

I am in for an Alaskan if they bring it back (hopefully with an improved finish)

Odds are the Small frame is a misprint, BUT Hey, You Never KnowSurprised

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.

The Internet can do wonders so hopefully we can create enough buzz here to at least get a small run of new revolvers each year.

Jimbob, have you had issues with the AGS finish?  I don't think I have read anything negative...

I've seen one AGS on Gunbroker where it looks like the factory finish was burned off the cylinder near the exit holes. Don't know why that happened, but it didn't look good.

I have seen two or three pictures of different guns where the finish has burnt off at the barrel and even the back of the chambers.

Why I dont know, plus the ones I have handled have been pretty heavily scratched up. 

Maybe I am being too picky but it is a lot of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to not get an ultra premium finish.
