I was looking at a Colt Diamondback 22 that looked very clean except that on the recoil shield area the bluing was worn away to bear shiney metal from the star (six sided racket wheel that the hand moves to turn the cylinder). The dealer said that this $440 used gun was hardly shot.
Does the price seem right and is this a sign I should be concerned about.Hope I am clear about this- not sure what the parts are called.The slight peening of the frame is caused by the recoiling cylinder hitting the rear of the frame. Seems it would take a lot of shooting to get a 22 to do this.Otherwise the timing was good and what a beautiful action!!
