A very cherry bone stock1977 HW35. Bought it to flip but I will have to dwell on this on for a while. Tangy as the day it was built, my have to tar the spring before I make a decision.

Check the wear on the lockup interface for the thumb lever. I just bought a nice looking 1969 model and the lockup is loosey goosey from wear on the receiver tube. Might be a factor in your decision to sell or not.
Also tear it down and check the leather seal out quick. The piston nose is threaded, and if the gun isn't sealing well (like from an old dry leather seal) the piston will slam the front of the receiver and smash the threads. Making it a huge pain to get off to fix. Easier to catch it before it happens. These guns have big 4mm ports so it doesn't take much to make one slam.
Nice looking gun!!
