Years ago I had a home break in and several things were taken. Just last week I got notified that the local police department had recovered one of the revolvers that had been taken, an Harrington and Richardson 923 that I bought up a police supply store several years prior. The revolver was a good shooter but nothing spectacular in collectability.
The clerk I spoke to at the police department stated that the detective handling the case had indicated the revolver was inoperable on the property receipt. They asked if I was still interested in retrieving the item and I'm out of curiosity mostly said yes. When I got to the police department and paid for parking at a meter I was sadly disappointed when they opened up the box from the evidence room. The cylinder and cylinder pin were missing and the internal parts are rusted solid. Guess I got a unique paperweight at this point...
