picked up 3 sweet S & W @ local gunshow

[bill338]

The guy I got them from got them in the US as scrap

 

[Bill_13]

Only 20 shots down the pipe.

 

[Templar Knight]

A little bit of gun oil ,and they should be good as new......I like the mounting idea as well.....

 

[sailor723]

They are very cool but you can't help thinking...."what a shame"

 

[johNTO]

Great idea! They would look pretty cool mounted up on a nice wood plaque.

Great idea(x2) but ensure you get them coated to preserve the finish…..

 

[Forest1488]

They about the same as Mr Smith and Mr Wesson do now.

 

[gdrew]

A good example of why it's important to purchase guns that have a chrome lined barrel.

 

[josquin]

Plant 'em in Wendy Cukier's back yard, under the chrysanthemums. Then call the police and a TV news crew.

@oldrodder: Yes, the grips look relatively OK. I wonder if they could be restored.

 

[Aniest]

Hell no, make or buy a nice wood plaque and mount them to it, that wood look awesome.

I wonder if they could be preserved by being encapsulated into a clear resin block? I have no clue how it is done, but it would look awesome. Here is an example:

Might even be able to do it at home.

My wife made a 3ft dia table layed out with pennies(since they became useless). The top was filled with acrylic resin. Looks great!

The resin block is a cool idea. Very easy to do. I made a pen holder in Gr7 the same way.

Weird how they didn't salvage any parts aside from maybe the cylinder before torching them. The hammer alone would be worth more than you paid for them.

 

[misterzr]

Home Depot has the resin, we did a top on our bar with beer caps. Very easy to work with and I like the idea of putting the guns in it, would freeze them in time

 

[icelink]

Thats some creepy s**t.......but I'd buy them too

 

[wheaty]

Ah yes...I remember those. LIEBERAL Commemoratives from PET and now to be repeated by the sperm...

 

[CV32]

Cylinders are perhaps intact somewhere.

 

[Markus]

They certainly look to have been hit with a cutting torch.

 

[maxman1]

Or you could put them in a shadow box.

Minor pitting in the bore.

Nah. Minty bores at worst.

This. Would make an amazing coffee table.

Picked up these at the show just thought they were cool

A perfect example of why I don't like a lot of people...that's just criminal...:-(
