You and me both...
Man, that's nice.

Anyone else notice the serial number on the gun butt is S 134169 and the barrel is stamped S 134139? The grips are rounded on the bottom also which is a nice touch for that time period.

Didn't notice that...
I think the barrel serial # is a "6". Look at the top of
the "3" - in the serial numbers, as opposed to the work numbers - every "3" has a squared top.
If you enlarge the picture of the barrel serial # you can see the rest of the "6", closing the apparent gap.
HA HA HA! VICTORY IS SOOOO SWEET!
...would be the tone of my post had I $11,000 of disposable income.
Oh well, I'm just glad to see someone still appreciates the good things in life.
