Something about those Old Models just trip my trigger, (no pun intended!)
hittman,, that .357 has a serious turn line. I'm betting you didn't put it there. But I love the plum coloring.

gunman,, that's a nice tight group there. You need to quit shooting at 5 ft to make such nice groups!

Both guns are as I bought them ….. freckles and warts …. But flawless operation

Big fan of the 4 5/8 barrel here ….. I think the 22 is first year of that length production

I’m not sure how the previous owner could have managed that big a turn line! Maybe he just fondled it and never shot it …. I don’t know.

hittman,
That 4 5/8, XR3 grip frame is a pretty hard one to find, Looks great. I had one at one time but not as nice as yours.

I use a # 2 pencil on my show targets saves ammo at the 5ft range.

Mine with some brothers.

The 4 5/8 single six may be a Lightweight as they all had that length barrel.

That's what I was thinking If the serial is 20XXXX then it's a LW
