Posting for a co-worker.........

The gun is in my possession, and is in really good shape. It has a very smooth action and trigger pull. The cylinder spins smoothly and fits perfectly into place with no play. The gun also comes with the old holster pictured with it.

Made by Miroku Firearms in Japan
(which has also made guns for Browning & Winchester)

Just trying to post a little info on it...
Below is copied and pasted from this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miroku_Corp.

"Miroku Corporation (Miroku Kabushiki Kaisha) (OSE: 7983) is a Japanese manufacturer located in Nangoku, Kochi Prefecture, Japan. A large part of their business is manufacturing firearms, including shotguns produced for Browning Arms Company and rifles licensed by Winchester Firearms. [5] In the UK and European markets those products are sold under both the Miroku and Browning brand names.

Miroku manufactured a few different models of handguns between the 1960s and the 1980s, though these were not widely distributed. Among the most common is the "Liberty Chief" model, a conventional .38 Special revolver.[6] They also, for a short time, manufactured copies of the Browning BL22, under the name Miroku ML22 - a lever action rifle in .22LR calibre, popular with Australian rabbit shooters due to its high magazine capacity (15 rounds) and generally low price.

Miroku shotguns, mostly Over and Under models, cost upwards of $1000 USD. Miroku also produces guns for Browning; though cheaper, they are generally accepted as rugged and reliable firearms. They also reproduce Winchester replicas of their famous lever action and falling block action rifles.

Their MK38 Teague O/U sporting shotgun is widely regarded as a classic and has achieved notable success in competition. They are priced in the same range as the Browning B525 and Beretta 686E, but possess features such as back-bored barrels and extended chokes that are only associated with more expensive guns in the Browning/Beretta ranges."

Another info link: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_value_of_miroku_38_special_liberty_revolver_purchased_in_late_1960\'s

This particular piece has the more rare 4" barrel!

Asking $250
Thanks for looking, and feel free to contact me!
