Saw this and thought it might make a nice little project gun during my R&R.  Can't tell if its a 714 or a 14 in the white???  Either way, I won't go terribly high on the bidding- buyers fees and all…

Looks like the cylinder has been blued, but yeah, it's hard to tell with the rest of the gun. It needs some lovin' for sure, hope ya get it.GoodLuck

Guys,

Based on that serial number I think this was originally a blued gun manufactured around 1976 (+/-).  Plus it has the old logo in the grips as well.

Good luck it would certainly make a good project gun.

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

That gun needs to go to a loving family.

 

CereKote maybe? I would not try to re-blue it.

BTW Ron- Isn't there anything else you can think about doing on R&R than working on a beater project?

You and your troops stay safe!

well, it's up over 140 now- too much, w/ a 17% buyer's premium, shipping, FFL fees, and the Ion bond coating I decided on- just not much of a project gun at that price.  NEXT!
