A good 22 revolver

I bought this Colt Officer's Model Match earlier this fall. It dates back to about the mid 50s. I hesitated to pay the asking price, but now that I've owned and shot with it, I wouldn't want to resell it for what I paid. I don't think the previous owner(s) shot it very much and that's a shame since the action is smooth and light, and the trigger breaks very cleanly. It's very much like a Colt Python action should be. It had a 1/2" wide trigger shoe on, but I took that off. I find that with the price of ammo nowadays, 22 rimfires like this are what I shoot the most. They're a lot of fun and also help to undo some of the damage the kickers have done.
