I have the same year and love it. Great little shooter.
Funny thing about getting older: Your eyesight starts getting weaker but your ability to see through people's BS gets much better.

Great find! I have 3 of them. Great little pistols. I found one LNIB too but from 1964 (year I was born). Still had both interchangeable cylinders, all the papers and the original register receipt with it - $67.50 + tax.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

I had to read your post a few times. I thought you were saying that you paid 49.95. Now Im thinking that was the price way back when.

I've got one just like it. It was passed down from my Dad. I remember when Dad swapped an old 45 for it in the late 50s.
