Need help identifying a Taurus revolver; would really like to know which model this is (and year made if possible). I came across this gun from a guy that sold it to me but didn't know a lot about it from the guy he bought it from years ago.
It's a .357 Magnum. It has a 6" barrel, is a six shot, has wood grips. The serial number tool on the Taurus site doesn't come close to identifying this...as the serial on this is all numbers and has no letters as their tool requires. There are six numbers in the serial, the first three being 108.
He said it was older than ten years old and only remembered that he got it from an older farmer. He took the original finish off of it, but never did anything to restore it.
There's no orange insert in the sight. I can't match it up with any online photos for the model 65 or 66 because something in their picture doesn't match this.
The cylinder has the markings M K 7 0 3 but I don't know if it's the original cylinder. When the cylinder is opened, I can see a V with 505 underneath it on what I believe they call the crane or yoke.
Anybody have any information on this that you can share?
