My grandfather taught me how to shoot a pistol with a Model 36. I was to get it "when your 18" according to him, but it was stolen out of his car before then. 40yrs later I own a "few" handguns and not one wheel gun. Time to change that and I want to get what I learned on. I remember it being a nickel-plated .38 short stub with wood grips. He called it a "police special". I am pretty sure it was a model 36.
What are decent used prices on these? (Not in a hurry to get one, so if Covid is driving the used prices up I can wait)
I don't mind buying new, but the only new I have seen is blued. Is the model 36 available in nickel? If not what would it cost to plate that baby? No idea what that would be.
I appreciate any help!
