A nice lady I've worked with for nearly 20 years is trying to decide which of her late father's handguns to carry in her car and possibly on her person as our town is getting dangerous.
So I've started test firing her battery for accuracy and reliability.
The latest is the revolver mentioned S/N K3977##, blued 3Ts, pinned 6-in., decent target stocks, lotsa blue wear on muzzle thanks to closed bottom Bianchi 5BHL, some light rust in backstrap serrations. In other words a shooter.
It's not, however, any kind of packing size defense gun in town.
I'm gonna test it with several different loads this weekend for her.
I've always wanted an 8-3/8th M48, but this would do.
What would be a fair price? Also thinking cash plus a lightly used Smith Shield 9mm, I rarely carry.
Input from you gurus three, and other P-F wheelie kings appreciated.
