Been thinking lately about finding a project revolver to work on and increase my skills. I've enjoyed working on my S&W to get it competition ready, feeling like I can probably manage most repairs on these short of re-barreling.
Wondering what is a good price range for something like a Smith or Ruger revolver with various issues, and what stuff I should pass on... thoughts? Definitely looking for something with little collector value, that will end up as a shooter and/or carry piece.
