That looks in very good nick, not your average Joe's weapon of choice. So who or what has two holes in it?

Any idea on the revolver manufacturer? Never heard of Vsii. Or are those aftermarket grips? And are the rounds hollow points or just already fired shell casings?

Looks like an older .357 magnum...
Well worn from the 70s-80s
6 spent cartridges..
That gun probably has quite a history.
Nickel plated.
Is that VSU?
VSUx..
I would like to see the other side of the barrel.
Quite a find for some kids.
Lucky the cartridges were all spent.
I had a smith&wesson ..
I have hollow points..those are spent rounds
