Well....the gun showed up today and it is kind of....almost...sort of ..what I was supposed to get...
...
It was advertised as a 357 revolver with an extra 38 spcl cylinder....here's what I got...

As you can clearly see, what I received is a MINT condition 709 with an extra .357 cylinder 
... The box is not original to the gun either, but I don't care... The Zebras are one of the better sets I've seen. So, in the grand scheme of life, I think I came out ahead on this one--I didn't have a 709, and now I have a really nice one.

Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.

I will have to agree with LB on this one! To be honest with you I'm not sure I've even seen a 709 before... You're right those zebra's are outstanding!
Always nice to be pleasantly surprised on a deal.

Congrats on a fine purchase 
The serial number on my Action Cup is only about 100 units away...38S00127x. This would put your 709 right near the end of Monson production.

Well, it's definitely not blued!
Man, what a great find & such a beauty, too! I've definitely got one of those on my short list...well, make that LONG list since they don't come up for sale every day.
Congrats on your awesome score!!

Let me reiterate.
What a great find.
And virtually mint, to boot.

Man I have a unfired NIB 686-8 5″ unfluted cylinder I would probably trade for a nice 715 VH4 with spare 38 cylinder or a nice blued 22 LR with spare WMR in 4' barrel. I have 722 like that, it's the cats meow.
