Had a good night at the local auction. Picked up a 4" stainless Security Six (which has been on my wishlist for a while) and a nice old, non-molested 3 screw .357 Blackhawk.

A fine looking pair of .357magnum revolvers. That Security-Six is exactly like the one I found this past weekend. Looks like it's "only slightly" used.
 
I carried a security six as. Game warden many years ago, I do wish I had not let it go.
 
Those are a couple of nice ones. I was at an auction this week, didn't come home with any. I was bidding on a Blackhawk just like yours, not sure if I ended up in second place on it or not, lost out on all of them I was interested in. You wouldn't have been in Canton by any chance??

Yes, I was. It was a Kiko’s Firearms auction. We may have been bidding against each other. :)

I was there. Bid on a few guns, went across the lot to Tim's Tavern and had a delicious burger, cup of lobster bisque and a cold beer. Back to the auction just before they sold your Blackhawk and the brass framed .45. I did bid on both of those, should have went a little higher on the brass frame. That Blackhawk you picked up was nice. Next time let me have a few. :wink: :wink:

You two need to get together, and stop bidding against each other? Nice score!

Very nice on both accounts! I have a special fondness for those Security Six's as well. It was my VERY FIRST personally purchased firearm back when I was 19 years old and my first carry piece in my LEO career. I so wish I never got rid of that one!
