My new-to-me Dan Wesson 357 Magnum - The Firearms Forum

mesinge2 · 03-20-2012, 10:32 PM

Just picked it up!

Its a rare 3" fixed barrel model. That's what intrigued me so much about it. Its getting much harder to find these fixed barrel models.

She is a beauty and you are an artist with the camera, great pictures.

I did not know that they had a fixed barrel version . . . . learn something new every day.

Good for you.....I just bought a Dan Wesson 357 Magnum CTG Serial #236677 at a pawn shop for $300. They said the hammer was broken. Listed for $449. Took it home and adjusted the main spring in the grip and now is DA/SA capable. Lol. . Now looking for pachmayr decelarator gripper grips. Any help would be appreciated.

Man! that is one sweet pistol. Good find and great price!

GD-That has a Palmer address, which makes it later than the Monson pistols. I had no idea they put out a non-changeable barrel model either!

Crysis · 06-15-2012, 06:49 PM

Tks...it has the Mansoon,MA tag on it. Did you get the Palmer address from the ser # ?
