I have a Meriden .32 top break revolver. I guess it's known as an Iver Johnson design. I inherited this piece from my wife's late grandfather. The problem is that it seems to need some work. The cylinder doesn't line up correctly with the barrel(lock up?)and there does seem to be an excessive gap between the cylinder and barrel. I would never consider firing it in it's current condition. I've seen similar guns on the internet for sale and they don't seem to bring much. My question is if this is even worth repairing. I've had it to a gunsmith and he says it would probably be about $75-$100 to repair it. Would you guys/gals do it or would you wait for a gun turn in day we have here in Illinois and get a $50 gift card from Wally world?
