I won't be bidding on this one

He’s got a bunch of other quality stuff up for auction as well...

Colt made 22 LR versions of most of their duty guns, like this one: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/903706815 Not many, but a few.

That's an Official Police, the parent gun for this monstrosity was a D frame Detective Special or Police Positive Special.
The only D frame .22s I know of are rather scarce Cobras and very scarce Couriers, both on aluminum frames.

I think there had to be a sex change on ignition. Looks like a real Diamondback hammer, so Bubba only had to change the frame bushing.

Gotta admire the rear sight installation, too.

It borders on criminal to actually ask $1399.99 for that piece of (expletive deleted) butchery. Talk about having no shame. Good grief!

Well, he knows now.

[HeavyDuty]

Just great. I made the mistake of checking out the listing while logged in, and now GB is sending me reminder emails about this piece of shit.

[RevolverJIM]

Is there some way, any way, that I can un see that mess???

[Jim Watson]

Hey, it could be worse, he might have "Fitzed" it.

My .22 Diamondback, purchased new in 1977 for $197, is a D frame. I've seen lots of them over the years.

[Jim Watson]

Correct. I should have said I did not know of a D frame .22 to cut up into a fake Diamondback.
