I just got another Old Army

[Patocazador]

I didn't get the whole pistol, just the complete frame minus cylinder and grips.
The gun has been highly polished at the Ruger factory and is unfired. I couldn't stand seeing it naked so I put grips and a cylinder in it. Now I will have to polish the cylinder. :hmm:

In the box.

Nice...I just sold a high polished one. I saw one on "buy it now" for $1200. I don't know if he got it or not. I got $650. out of mine. I have two with satin finish. Wonder what the heck, happened to the original cylinder?

The owner sold the cylinder and grips because he needed $$. He said he thought he could could get a replacement when he got back on his feet but that didn't happen.

I thought I'd heard it all, but there's a new one. Well it's sad, for some the times are ruff. That's really a sad story, but the gun has a new home, and ready to be enjoyed again.
Best of Luck.

that's a really nice looking pair of revolvers!

Thanks.

I believe I'll have the cylinder polished to match the frame if I can find someone who will do a good job. Any suggestions??
