OM 357 BH Convertable....SOLD.

[DGW1949]

OM BH .357 with an auxilary hand-fitted 9MM cylinder. 1968 vintage non-prefix gun. Serial number 1088XX, 6-1/2" barrel. Has older "flat top" XR-3 grip frame and aftermarket walnut grips. Overall finish is about 90% or so with holster and handling marks. Grip frame has large brite areas on the bottom and along the trigger guard. The steel parts are much better than the grip frame but do exhibit thining in some areas and a bit of holster wear on both sides of the muzzle. The grips have a few small dents 'n dings but remain soild with no cracks or problems.The 9MM cylinder has been used very little and would almost pass as new. Excellent shooter, retains it's 4-click action and is mechanicaly sound. Both cylinders have almost no endshake, both lock up right and both time as they should.

Asking $475 from a Forum member due to it's rather pricey grip frame and the extra cylinder. (Sum of the parts). Shipping from my FFL to yours would run $20 or so. CONUS only. No sales to CA, MD, or NJ.

I'm too dumb to post photos through the Forum but if interested, a photo of the gun can be seen here;

Also for sale on other venues. Any further questions, feel free to post them on this thread. I got nothing to hide.
First "I'll take it" that gets posted here gets it.

Thanks.

I'd say that's a heckuva deal for somebody.

PM sent for general info, not a buy offer.

Got your PM and replied with the complete number.
Understand though, that the 9MM cylinder is not original to the gun, and that it did not come from the factory with the XR-3 grip frame. In short, this is a very solid, well fitted gun but it is not "all original".

Hope this helped.

Thanks for the PM response. I'll be adding it to Bob's List.

The question we're all asking ourselves is "did it ship as a convertible . . . a BKH36X?

The nice ladies at Ruger will tell ya, and confirm it (along with the ship date) with a "letter" if ya ask nice.

And we'd all love knowing about it.

I will take the revolver if it is still available.
