I picked it up first thing and was excited to have it. When I got it home and gave it a good cleaning I realized that it wasn't as pristine as I originally thought. There's a large scratch on the left side of the frame under the cylinder and the start of some pitting on that side as well. There's some road rash on the bottom sides of the grip as well.
In a weird way I'm kind of glad. This way I won't feel bad about stuffing it in a holster and wearing it around the property here. As best I can tell, it was manufactured in 1979.
Here's a couple of lousy pics. I have lousy camera skills, so these are about the best I can do. I'll try to get some better ones tomorrow morning when the light's better. Anyway:

1 Question, what's this "Safe Queen" thing?Is that like having a car you don't drive???
Certain guns can be considered an investment or at least a hedge against inflation.
Therefore a gun in pristine shape has more value at the time of resale.
Like a car with low mileage will sell higher than a the same car with much miles.
Endeavor to persevere,
Press on regardless.
Need little, want less, love more.
