they really have gotten hard to find, but persistence [ ? neurosis ? obsessiveness? ] paid off. a bit unusual , it is the 44 model that JT wrote about [ with other models as well ] in this link [from the book of the 44 ]:

me too.....some beautiful grain wood really set it off. maybe i should get some giraffe bone or holly that looks like ivory?

i tried to resist the urge, and all that did, was make me get it later than if i had ordered from USFA and pay more as well.

Rob, don't! They are harder to find than Elvis. (nm)

We had a guy come in with a Bisley FT Target .45 Colt

and the boss turned it down at $750 and I couldn't (literally) get out the door fast enough to catch one POed seller as he drove off... :-(

I sometimes regret selling that to you. Then I remember that it helped pay for a TLA Flat Top Target and I have to rethink my regret. :)

I still call dibs if you ever get rid of it!

Done called it! (nm)

Nope....

I called it back when I sold it to him, so I know I got there ahead of you - for once! :)

Course, Jared may have a bout of amnesia and sell it to Roger!

I think Kathryn called dibs
