Hi all,
My mother-in-laws' boyfriend let me borrow this to try out at the range. I'm thinking about purchasing it, depending on how it shoots.
Its a Hawes Firearms Western Six Shooter .22 mag / .22 LR. It has two different cylinders, one for each caliber.
The bluing is faded on the barrel and down the ejector rod casing, mostly from holster wear. The action is extremely smooth, and the hammer snaps if you think the word "squeeze" hard enough (ie extremely sensitive trigger).
Seems like a nicely built gun, very solid, but the one grip is broken (plastic) by having the bottom front corner broken off.
I have no idea what its worth, or how it shoots. Would it be prudent to take to a gunsmith first before range-testing it? I'm leaning towards this....
Anyway, on to the good stuff: pics!
Its a pretty neat little gun, and i'm looking forward to seeing how it shoots.
Cheers.
