[QUOTE="sky king, post: 754525, member: 8102"] I have a pre-37 airweight that my Dad bought in 1953 or '54. Still have the sales slip. $50 at Andy Anderson's plus a box of 158 gr. lead ball for another $5. Still have the last half of that box. That's all the sweet thing has had put through it. Dad kept it in a drawer at the office. Hasn't been fired since1967. It's a beautiful piece. The first 4000 or so of those had alloy cylinders. Then they decided they were too weak and offered to replace all of them with steel. Mine was never sent back for the new cylinder. The book says the original cylinder makes it twice as valuable. The book also says, "DO NOT FIRE." Damn. I also have a model 36-1 w/3" heavy barrel on my night stand. I believe it is from the early '70's. Pachmyer grips on that one. [/QUOTE]
