I recently inherited a Smith and Wesson Model 1066 10 MM after my father passed in July. I listed the gun recently on Gunbroker. I was contacted by a self-proclaimed retired federal agent that stated he was a gun expert. I listed the gun as new and unfired. My father never fired any of his weapons that he collected nor have I. He asked me to change my auction to state that the gun had been fired many many times. He based his opinion on a picture that was in my photobucket account but was not on the auction. I would like to see if there are any "experts" here that can determine if this gun was fired many many times. Lol
He stated that he owned guns that were fired over 500 times and still looks brand new. He stopped just short of accusing me of lying in my auction by stating it had not been fired. I replied that it could have been test fired from the factory which most manufacturers do. Here is the picture in question.
Here is another picture I took after wiping the area with my finger.
