Local PD and 357 Mag

To make a long story short, the oroville Ca PD recently were able to return to me my 357 mag. It was stolen about 10 years ago, and it was more than a little upsetting considering it was a Graduation gift from my parents. When I finish college Dad asked what I wanted and this was it.

It pays to keep track of your serial numbers and take picks of your firearms.

Thanks again oroville pd!

Good deal. To bad it took 10 years, but at least you DID get it back!

That's a pretty unexpected gift I'd say!

What kind of revolver is it?

Off topic, I was just in Oroville last Saturday night! Came over from my Duck Club near Afton to pick up a bunch of new goose decoys from a guy that runs a Guide Service in Maxwell and lives in Oroville. On the way we made a trip through the auto tour loop at Graylodge Refuge to watch all the loafing ducks now that the season is over!
