Not externally as nice as my M-15-2, but when I pulled the cover although it was dry, there was almost no ware on the clock-work. It has about a 3 to 4 pound trigger and smooth as glass now it that's been cleaned and oiled, paid too much ($350), but they are hard to find and shoot so goood. Nothing like a 22 revolver on a large frame sized gun, they just feel so much better in my hand. Best guess from Ser# 115xx it from '77 to '79 would be my best guess.

Pictures tomorrow after test drive if weather holds. I got to put the 4" barrel on the 15 and do a picture of both.  dwf-sign

Took a spare 6" SS barrel and a 6" blued 357 shroud to see how it would feel and then thought I remembered you could not switch caliber barrels and shrouds, but guess the 357 shroud and 22 shroud can interchange.

There be rain forcaste for tomorrow afternoon and I have 11 AM dr appointment so I'm heading out about 8:30 for a quick test firing at a 2" round reactive target to see if it shoot general direction pointed and then hope weatherman wrong about the afternoon.

I do this regularly, I REALLY need to find a Monson SS 6VH shroud for my 722

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.
