That .44 is certainly a lifetime find for those of us without unlimited play money. Congrats.
Well, it's been cut. It's not original.
I'm not collecting anymore. I'm just enjoying guns and looking for ones I can shoot without feeling guilt or fear of loss.
Glad you like the blanket. I bequeath it to you.

Looks like the bucket list got shorter.
Yes sir...
the Cadet was a 20 year itch that cost a lot more than it did 20 years ago.
The TL is to replace TLs I had before but was afraid to use and lessen the value. I'm tired of that.
Guns is f'r shoot'n not f'r look'n

Just make sure the .44 is wrapped up in it.
I have a cut-down Triple Lock....
....just meant I could afford it!
Yea bro. I didn't want to look at collectibles. NT

CORRECT PRE-WAR MAGNAS??
NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN HERE BUT THE TRIPLE-LOCK CEASED PRODUCTION AT LEAST 20 YEARS BEFORE THE MAGNAS ARRIVED.
CORRECT PRE-WAR MAGNAS??
I didn't want to comment on that, but yeah, not sure how those grips could be considered correct.

Sorry...didn't mean to say correct...

you're right of course. I got distracted trying to multi-task.
Well they are pre-war magnas...and they are on the gun...but they aren't correct. I think they look good though and the guns hardly correct to begin with. I like it.
Sorry...didn't mean to say correct...
I assumed that is what you were heading for.......
Otony
I LIKE IT!
AND MY TRIPLE-LOCKS AND 2ND MODEL HEs HAVE THE MORE USER FRIENDLY MAGNAS.
Great guns and I finally got one I can enjoy at the range.
