My 9mm revolvers - Clockwise from top:
Ruger Police Service Six blu, Ruger Speed-Six blu, Ruger Speed-Six ss, Gemini Customs Ruger SP-101 ss, Gemini Customs Ruger Speed-Six ss, S&W 940 3" ss, Charter PitBull ss, Charter PitBull blu, S&W 547 3" blu, S&W 547 4" blu
I'm not sure how I got started on these - I think it was the SP-101 that first attracted my attention. Then I had Marc Morganti work his magic on it, and that looked so good I sent him a pretty beat-up Speed-Six and he truly made it into a work of art. Both have trigger pulls that are quite smooth. I don't think I've ever seen another Gemini Speed-Six - it's really a neat conversion. Marc's work is something special and he's a great guy with which to work, he's now customized 3 guns for me.
It's hard to pick out a favorite amongst all of these - even the Charters are fairly rare and I feel lucky to have one of each - they shoot only Federal rimmed 9mm, a rarity in itself of which I have a couple of boxes (upper left corner). I really like the Police Service Six - I've never seen another one in 9mm and I know that there are a few ss ones out there as well - I came within a whisker of getting one of those but lost out after the seller decided he couldn't part with such an unusual gun.
The S&W guns are getting harder to find, too. The 940 is the rarer 3" version and is a really handy little gun with a great trigger.
One of the problems with collectibles is that the owners sometimes don't realize what they have and after an offer is made and they start to wonder why I want it! If it's a private seller I offer a decent price as I don't want to be accused of being underhanded - maybe that, and the gleam in my eye, is why I sometimes don't close a deal! I'm still looking for a ss Police Service Six!!!
