Okay here was the plan...Buy an awesome .22 High Standard to use as a 9 shot kit gun. Has a 2-3/8" barrel, round butt, and bluing is probably 95%+. Shoots great, must have been a safe queen..THEN, spotted the 3" barreled, with goofy non-blued sides (blued on Ebay are about $20), but has a 3" nice barrel!! It also shoots great for a shorter barreled revolver...Soooo...The "plan" looked like this...Swap barrels (one pin) and I would have a 3" barreled RB 9 shot kit gun, then sell the other. Well, I got a Ruger Mark III stainless/ fluted Hunter that is getting all my love now...Both revolvers need to go, because now I'm looking at optics/ holsters etc lol.
Note: the holster was a pretty cheap $20 nylon, but these fit same holsters as S&W K frames, with appropriate barrel lengths of course.
1. R-103 round butt, great bluing except drag-line, and one small scratch. 2-3/8" barrel, very tight awesome little gun with holster. $360 (go for $400+ on Gunbroker and probably not this pristine)
2. R-100 square butt, descent bluing and some dings but has highly desirable 3" barrel. Shoots good, but the R-100 model doesnt automatically retract the ejector star, and have to thumb the hammer a slight bit for trigger re-set. (this one needs more attention than the other for sure) $280
My consider partial trade for a Vortex Venom 3moa or similar RMR type optic. Located In Reno area (Sparks), but will ship UPS NDA private party to your FFL for $20 extra. (seven,seven,five) 378-0579
