New, they were special orders back in the day. I know of only two built and delivered in 74, but they were built on model 58 frames.
What have you bought firearms related in the last 48 hours?

Meant to say, this is used. That is why I said, “Fingers crossed…”

Springfield makes great weapons. My buddy bought the MILSPEC blued version a long time ago that had the "US" on the wood grips and still shoots it. It was a little over $400 new then.

Got to take it down for a good cleaning, polish the ramp & lube.
Reviews & Taurus says to run ~200 rds of hot .22lr thru it for break-in.
Will order some xtra mags for it from Taurus, and some stick-on rubber grips.

I had some rewards at Sportsman's Warehouse & was wondering what to do with them. I saw the 22TUC, the price was right & I did some research.
Where the 22TUC will come in handy is...
#1) if I have something down but need to put it out of it's misery without expending another highpower rd. The 22TUC is really lightweight & compact so it would be better than carrying another more potent pistol,
#2) it can serve as a LW .22lr back-up to primary self-defense firearm, and
#3) it could serve as a deep-carry pocket pistol for summer use.
So, it could be in my kit as a companion to a beargun.
I've never had a tilt-barrel so that's unique and this is sort of neat.
Need to dig thru the parts box since I may also have a sticky holster that it will fit in, and I need to order a sticky add-on grip from here...
and some extra mags from Taurus.
The trigger pull is a long DA like my Kahr PM9 but abit heavier than the Kahr, but much better than my old Walther PPK/S.

Nice little close-up and personal gun. One thing I like about D/A pistols, is how safe they are with a live round in the chamber.Picked up one of these...
