Did some spoon swappin'
 

And ended up with a rather nice 1964 vintage Browning Semi Auto 22 - the 22 short only model.

Lusted after one of these for a looong time, and "only" gave up my Contender which I didn't really shoot anyway. Think I came out ahead value wise too :D

Of course, now I have to try and find 22 short ammo :(

Sweet, I gots a hankerin for that Browning lever action 22, it shoots all 22 ammo except 22 Magnums.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1403753137.jpg

Here's my New to me, 6" Python .357

I got 3 boxes of 22 short at Academy the other day for about $3.50/50rds.

Beautiful gun. Color me jealous.

Jealous here as well, beautiful Python! How does it shoot?

I enjoy a little spoon swapping, I traded my Sig P250 Subcompact that I never carried for a Colt Trooper mk3 6" a while back. Pretty happy with that transaction.

Thanks, the Python has been a "quest" for a long time. It shoots great. The PO says he put about 100 rnds of .38special through it & I've shot 36 rnds of .38s & 6 .357 mags. Wonderful revolver. I also have the original box and paperwork too.

I swapped my HK USP .40 ( + $$ ) to do the deal and am pretty satisfied.

Last year I swapped a couple of autos for a couple of older S&W revolvers and really enjoy shooting the
revolvers .

I love a nice shooting 22. Enjoy your new spoon.

Forgive me for asking...what did you pay for that beauty?
I ask because I will be selling mine (NIB, never fired) when I get some time to do so.

That is one SWEET Python.

...Since you like spoon trading...and you mentioned a hankerin for a lever-action 22 that shoots anything but magnums...how about I trade my Winchester 9422 XTR for that Python??? I'm serious :D

Nice stand...you make it?

Yep. Thanks. Pretty simple. Just trimmed leather glued where the stock and barrel rests.
