Donât normally see Dan Wessonâs at gun shows, today I saw 2.

Saw a Model 15-2 w/10 inch barrel in fabulous shape (nothing else), asking $650.

Then as I was about to leave I spied a pistol pack in the case (cloth was gone and the foam deformed); 15-2 wearing an 8 incher, spare 6, 4, 2Â½ inch barrels (everything looked like new), extra grip, barrel tool, 4 or 5 extra front sight blades, asking $975!

Me, I had just blown my 2^nd job gun budget on a used Marlin 880 SS bolt action rifle, Stainless, heavy barrel, 22LR with a Simmons Whitetail scope (5-8x36);

and a new SP101 357Mag (cc/contoured hammer);

and a S&W 36 no dash (Chiefâs Special) in nickel, round butt. Checking the serial number on the net I figure it is a 1982 model.

Oh well, I was happyâ¦Â Â but it sure would be nice to have a bottomless money bag!

Planning on taking pics tomorrow but may go to the range insteadÂ lol2

Nice group shot. Â Your Dan looks awesome with the black grip. Â How do you like the service grips on the 36? Â I tried a set on my 60 and took them off because it jumped around in my hand.

S&W 36; You do have keep a grip on it. I've ordered some rosewood bantam boot grips for it. That should make it interesting. range-time

Yes, we do tend to take our blessings for granted . Went to the range today. Very pleased with the SP101 andÂ S&W 36.Â Smitty was brutal with the +P's. I did get some Pachmayr compac proffessional grips for the 36 that should help with shooting comfort. Haven't tried them yet though. That SP101 is sweet!

I was as the Reno Crossroads gun show today (18 Feb) and saw a pistol pack (excellent condition....but $1,600!) and wound up getting a Monson .357Mag with 6" barrel. Â Blued, great condition. Â Non original grips, though, otherwise in great shape with excellent trigger pull in both SA and DA. Â $350 with holster. Â

357 Maxi, 375 SM, 445 SM (blue & SS), 44Rhino & .357 Mags V15 & W12, .460 Rowland, pre-CZ Pointman 1911 .45acp, modern Guardians in 9mm & .45acp, Pointman 9mm and Razorback 10mm. Â Always on the lookout for something new! Â
