Well folks,

After much anticipation, I finally collected my 1st ever S&W today. And what is more, it is my first revolver as well!

It's a 17-4. Seems in good condition to my (handgun) inexpert eye. At least it is in good shape and locks up tight with good chamber - barrel aligment and no apparent gremlins in the trigger.

Well, photo's or it didn't happen, so here we are:
(Think it has all original paperwork and the cleaning kit is still sealed in poly bag with matching serial number box...)

Only slight lining on cylinder:

Well, hope I've done OK. I'm happy with it. Reckon I paid top $ but I didn't have a lot to haggle with...

Any help on dating: Serial 21K62XX

ATB,

Scrummy
