Thanks very much for the input Superman, I do feel very good about the purchase at this point. I felt like, even at the time that while I wasn't "stealing" it at $1000, that I wasn't really paying too much either. Your guy's generous input has confirmed that for me.
And I know on the "now find one for Mom" comment...giving it to her tonight with a giant bow on it, gonna make sure she's aware of just how nice of a gift that is..lol. Would defiinitely love to have it myself, but between a 66 and 28, I'm a little partial to a nice 28. That'll be the one I get.

Since yours also has a documented factory simulated ivory grip you didn't get a bargain at a grande but you won't loose anything when you sell it either.
This is the first one I have ever seen that has those grips on it and product code documents such...
GREAT FIND!...now go find a gun for mom....Bob
