    My Carrry Diamondback




    Way back in the 70s I was unhappy with my issue revolver so after a few years I purchased a Diamondback for on and off duty. After many years of service that revolver resides in a place of honor in my safe never to be used again. This one however takes its place as I decided to start carrying another off duty again at the end of my career.

    Nothing wrong with it. Just well used and old like me. I'm at work and its home. Don't have a camera at home.

    I believe they are AJAX. Dated 1981. Yes they are very comfortable, but I want originals and trying to find a set of "users".

    I'd put factory stocks on it and retire it while it's still pretty. Then shoot it on birthdays and holidays.
    I got a fever, and the only cure is more guns.

    Very classy. I'm talking about you and the gun. There is an elegance about the Diamondback. This is one situation where wraparound grips are really nice. I can tell that gun feels good in the hand.
