Modest low back collection

[Terry T]

A photo of my modest Security Six low back collection:



On the left are the rare .38 specials: RDA-86, RDA-84, and a SDA-82.
On the Right are the hard to find stainless .357s: GA-36, GA-34, and GA-32.
In the middle is a .357 SDA-34.

Sweet! set of Type I frame guns.

Very nice!

Something there to be very proud of.

Here's the ones I've found mostly by just dumb luck. Both are 357 and I assume they're likely the most common two.

Love those old frame DA's!
Any low back Speed-Sixes to go with that nice group??

"Chet15",
Funny thing about the Speed Sixs - "Lovemydals", my good buddy for 30+ years (and best man at my wedding), and I are pretty competitive so.....we agreed a while ago that he would collect the 'Speed Sixs' and 'Security Sixs' and I'd do the 'Service Sixs'. We got crossed up on the 'Security Sixs' since the early Service Sixs (SDA) were labeled 'Security Six'. :shock: (It's been a learning process!)
Then, just to confuse the issue, we found the round butt, GS, "Speed Sixs" mis-labeled "Police Service Six"! :shock:
"Lovemydals" has since backed off on picking up the Security Sixs for a variety of reasons.
The agreement is that we don't bid against each other.

I've been trying to focus on the 6" Security Sixs and the Service Sixs (all barrel lengths) but when the 3 barrel length low back set presented it's self, well....it IS an affliction!

Long drawn out explanation to say that the low back Speed Sixs are in 'Lovemydals" collection! Between us, we're accumulating a pretty good pile of Six series double actions. The fun is in the hunt for the odd ones.
