Woof woof. You'd love the Winchester 74.

The one I almost gave up on is called a Miroku 'Liberty Chief' 38 special snubby.

That was given to me after it's owner was told by his gunsmith that it was out of time and couldn't be fixed.

This turned out to be the only thing ever spoken by a gunsmith that I can vouch for as being completely true.

I tried for days to reassemble the 'lockwork' on that bastard. Several springs, the bolt, and a few other small parts had to be held just so while the sideplate was reinstalled.

Finally got lucky after maybe 100 attempts. It's back to the state I received it in, never to be disassembled again.

Hell of it is, the thing is very accurate... just don't try to double action it.
