That's lucky for you, but a bummer for us. I was hoping you'd get it.

During my life I’ve known several ladies that collected dolls; antique dolls, some quite valuable, over which they obsessed.  Reading C&B “collector” threads about gens & trends, the latest auction and box colors reminds me of them, sometimes. 

Everything has a history but only original firearms are historic, the rest are for tuning and shooting or just turnin a buck.

$876.00 That's not a bad deal at all. Specially with everything it came with. Someone scored.

Hi Fingers, if that Paterson was truly a stainless revolver I would have gone $1000. While the guy said that the revolver functioned correctly, the off center dings around the cylinder bolt shots suggests that work would be required to get the revolver correctly set up. That may not be important for a wall hanger, but a shooter would require work.

Regards,
Richard

Agree with your assessment of requiring work to be a shooter.  & I wish him luck.  aai had to get some work done to my Paterson forit to even function properly.  I have yet to try firing it.  I dare say the buyer isn't going to shoot it. 

If it had been Stainless Steel, I might have bid on it too.  Dang, I wish the Imoges worked.
