From time to time I'll look at Gunbroker and occasionally I'll find something that I'm interested in.
Frequently when I look at S&W revolvers the guns with the internal lock will be photographed in a manner designed to hide the lock. Typically a very low angle shot of the left side of the gun so that the thumb piece obscures the "Hillary Hole".
None of my S&W's have the lock and I don't care for it BUT the lock is not the end of the world. I do care that the sellers are attempting to hide what they must feel is an undesirable feature. I'm a firm believer in Caveat Emptor [Let the buyer beware] and I wouldn't buy a gun until I had a good idea what I was getting. It's not the lock that I'm concerned about, it's the attempt to conceal that fact from the very beginning of the sales process. I find it to be a bit shady.
Anyone else have an opinion on that practice?
