LEO Trade Model 65s
This has always been my favorite revolver. I can't stop buying the damn things when I see them come up. So yes, I got another today. Enjoy while they last. |
every. time.

Gone already. They never last long. I have a three inch Model 65 that is just about the perfect combat revolver. Just needs better grips. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0903/johnrippert/65-3.jpg |

Best combat revolver is a round butt, 3 inch model 65.... http://i.imgur.com/OiDa2Nxh.jpg Mine is a factory DAO gun I enjoy carrying a vintage M-36, front pocket carry to quick in and out places after dark. Outdoor's carry is a 4" barreled, moon clip equipped "N" frame. |

Are those Ahrends grips?

Came in late last week. Not as nice cosmetic condition as my others, but still the usual 'damn near unfired' look in general. Definitely a holster queen. And whoever had this thing made a loooongtime habit of leaning of it. The grips are more worn than any I've ever seen on any gun. The ones on the other side are almost smooth.

Just picked up my Aim Surplus police trade in 65 stainless from the FFL. It has the damn Hillary Hole.   I contacted AIM and they offered a full return with shipping label. I appreciate that, but they wasted a ton of my time by not at least mentioning there was a risk of a lock. I will not be keeping mine. No room for lock guns in my collection. |

Mine was the same. It had the lock. My FFL and I were both floored. I contacted AIM and they offered a full return with shipping label.

They could have sorted them and charged a premium for the pre lock models. Was quite unimpressed with AIM on this one. I will likely not have a problem getting my money back, but never would have bought this if I knew there was a risk of a lock. |

Quoted:
Absolutely. I would have paid decent money to ensure there was no lock. Was quite unimpressed with AIM on this one. I will likely not have a problem getting my money back, but never would have bought this if I knew there was a risk of a lock. I got Wolff springs and a new hand on order. |
