Show Us Your Burgo's
Pot metal, light chrome (very light), plastic grips. Man in Florida marries woman in Georgia (circa 1970), and they discover that they have the same make revolver...AND...the guns are consecutively numbered.
The Burgo is no longer for sale anywhere, thank heavens, and if my source is correct neither of the above were ever fired. Made in Germany, they are classic 1960-type weapons that were available in pretty much any decent hardware store for about $25. The .32 was favored by both Lady's and Gentlemen as sensibly sized personal protection firearms, long before the bigger is better syndrome took over.
Today's value? Hard to tell. These are 99%'ers, and might be worth a pretty penny to the right collector looking for something unique.
