The Flat Top was purchased at one of the Military Bases PX (Anchorage) in 1959. My FIL acquired this Revolver in 1962 when he was building the family Homestead. It still lives on the family Homestead to this day. It cost $68.00 .
ETA This Revolver remains unfixed.

Just fathom how many miles that thing was carried in a hip holster to get that kind of bluing wear on the cylinder and barrel.  Wow!!  Outstanding!
