Thanks for the reply carguy, thats exactly the type of info i was looking for. I will be over at his house on sunday and will take some pics of the other revolvers that he has there.

Now maybe this is a question for another forum, but what would be a good method of restoring/cleaning these up. I dont know how far i can go into the surface rust, and dont want to damage the plating that is remaining. Are these rare guns that i should leave in the current condition, or take a little bit of careful time and try to get some of the surface rust off?

Also, is there a source for parts out there? Would be interested in getting the hammer pin for the .38.

Thanks again!

Daniel
