Just picked up a Taurus Mdl 83...

For $209 bucks...excellent condition...blue...wood grips...4 inch barrel...not a mark on it! They wanted $219, but I offered $200 even. They came back with $209 and 4 free hours of range time....okay for me!

It looks like the S&W model 15, but has more modern adjustable sights on it.  :grin:

Sounds like you ran on to a real good deal!  Is it in 41 mag?

Hey, that's a good deal on a good revolver.   I recently picked up my second M83 in blue - already had one in stainless.  They shoot like a dream - I think you'll like yours.

PS this is my first post here.   Looks like a nice forum.

Well, so much for that...sold her yesterday at a profit to have more money for the gunshow this weekend! With my CZ52 addiction (6) and recent Mosin/Nagant addiction (4 in 4 months) find myself with no wheelguns at all now. I'll get another soon though!  :grin:
