First one I saw, many years ago, belonged to JT. I couldn't keep my hands off it and JT kept a close eye on me. After buying 2 OM 357's from a pawn shop I made the mistake of shooting them before sending to Andy. They stayed as is and they still are tack drivers. The 3rd one, I sent to Andy w/o firing it. It is still one of my prized possesions....what a great lil 44spl. Andy is a great guy to deal with.
