I can't believe I still have it,,,
I bought this at a garage sale in early 60's Oklahoma,,,
IIRC I was 11 years old and paid a whopping $5.00 for it and 44 rounds of .22 Shorts.
It looked brand new in the box back then,,,
The front sight fell off after less than 50 rounds,,,
The hand stopped turning the cylinder by the 100th round.
When I went into the military I packed it up with a lot of other junk,,,
I only "found" that box in 1998 when my older sister said it was still in her attic.
It's a ROHM and truly is a piece of dung,,,
I've owned cap pistols of better manufacture.
But, it did get me out of a jam one time,,,
I was a young man in the wrong part of Dallas after midnight.
So in the long run it worked toward it's intended purpose,,,
At least as well as any other SD handgun I own,,,
No shots fired and I got back to my car.
Why did I purchase it?
Because I had the money,,,
And Mom was looking the other way.
