Looks mighty rusty.

No, but I'll be more than happy to take it.

I thought the gun might have been stolen if they tossed it out during the chase. And if it was stolen, maybe an INGOer might recognize it.

Clicked on the pic for full size, looks like a BP SA to me.

I see what looks like shine inside the holster. if you blow it up, its in a leather holster. Looks like it could be a nice gun.

It was totally me that lost it.

No, but I have tightened a few up.......

Art first I thought I may be a crime gun some thug tossed. The fact that it's actually in a holster makes that less likely. Probably fell off a pack during a hike?

I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me. I'll be walking along and my .44, inside the holster, just falls off. I can't explain it. Yes officer, it is mine. I guess I'll have to use some duct tape next time.

I think it's a "Virginian Dragoon", Popular in the 70's when there was a big backorder on Smith and Ruger .44's...Interarms filled the void with these quality imports from Germany....

It's a disposable handgun. (don't worry - we'll make more) Probably "stolen" by someone who thought they were about to get caught with it. Just like a bag of weed. Ever shoot one of those Virginia Dragoons in .44 Mag. Not fun.

Yep, that .44 got loose alright.
