Apologize for my ignorance of Classified rules.

What made you decide to sell it?

I did the same "oops" not too long ago when I posted some ammo for sale. Just never "saw" the regulation. Lots of details out and about our Forum, and really easy to miss something. Just ended up a little

when I got deleted! :*)

I guess it's a twisted version of "Third Time's a Charm," Ed, at least in part. This was my 3rd revolver and I've never been all that great a shot with any of them. And I don't seem to have the inclination or time to get good at it.

Secondly, and just as important, is that I'm still lusting after the CCH 30-30, while trying to exercise the discipline of the "zero sum game" rule of firearms ownership these days.

Meaning that, "If a new one comes in, an old one needs to go out." Putting it in business terms, the Model 67 has the least seniority, doesn't get along all that well with the boss and is, therefore, the unfortunate victim of this reorganization (of the gun safe).

Simple as that!

Sorry to hear the revolver didn't work out for you. I do understand, though. Revolvers are like any other type of firearm in that you need to work with them to develop any degree of skill shooting them. When time and funds are limited, makes sense to stick with guns that are a priority for you.

All true and accurate observations, NCG. Most firearms I've had great luck with and been able to shoot well from the get-go. For whatever reason, revolvers don't seem to be in that category. And, right or wrong, I'm of the mind that "life is too short" to just feed it ammo whilst trying to get better, when it didn't work with the first two wheelguns I owned. It's now more mental than physical, I guess!

A wheelgun buddy of mine shot it a few weeks ago and it was lights out, so I know it's me, not the gun.

Anyway, I'm comfortable that it will find a nice, appreciative home in the near future.

A vintage Smith like that should be easy to move. Best of luck on finding what you need.

Thank you, sir! A couple interested parties so far, a bit of tire-kicking.

I'm sure it will end up in a good home...

ESquared, I am assuming you are happy with either SA or DA? Curious, do you fair better with a pistol? Or, are you more of a rifle man?
