My first was a second generation Colt SAA .357. Bought it off a friend in service in 1969. I didn't like it because of the fixed sights and erratic accuracy. Traded it off for a S&W M19 which I tried to wear out before my ex-wife claimed it ( you don't want to know). Just recently checked the value of that SAA and have been teary-eyed since. The first of many buy/sell/trade/mistakes.
