Yeah I had one of those pre Mark Troopers from the 50's. It was my grandfather's gun, which he used as his carry gun as a pilot in both the Korean and Vietnam Conflicts. Smooth action of course, but a bit too old looking for my taste. the particular model in question had a lanyard loop installed, which makes it a rare find, as I've yet to find another with the modification. I had to leave it with grandpa when I moved, but I'll inherit it when he passes.Won't use it too often, but I won't sell it either. It's an interesting gun to say the least. For a useable revolver, there are a million good S&Ws or more modern Colts though. I'd take that Model 15 if I had the money, heheh. Good to hear you are expanding your collection, dude.
