I bought the .44 new in the early 90's, IIRC $350. I was the first to call on a local classified website ad for the stainless this fall. $300. My neighbor found me the blued 22 this past week for $400. They're not perfect but I plan to use them. Joe

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

The first Dan Wesson, the models 11+12 and their successors , models 14+15 had flanges at the bases of the shrouds that fit on a nipple on the reciever next to the crane. The shroud looked like a porkchop bone. In early 1976 I believe, the model Â 15-2 was introduced with the redesigned shroud we are familar with. With each model introduction various other changes were made. Improvement were also made at various times without changing the model. One big difference between the porkchop and the 15-2 was that when you removed the shroud of a porkchop, the crane and cylinder could be pulled right off, a nice feature.

On the Nickle 15, the grip looks to be HS! Â Nice to see others with some pork around! Â Â
