I may be wrong on this but I think that what they are calling their '62 Police is nothing more than a modified version of the '61 Navy. A '62 Police was a 5 shot not 6 and a smaller frame than the Navy - like a '49. If you are thinking that it is the same as a original '62 Pocket Police - you might want to check that out.

That said . . . if it is the same frame size as a '61 Navy but with a shorter barrel . . . it would be a nice revolver . . . but then I'm partial to Navies.

I'm probably only half as good as he was anyways. Hiram's Rangers Badge #63
