An interesting gun though, and a favorite of mine. I might letter the gun and I suspect it may turn out to be a H.H. Harris shipped item.

Larry, neat gun, I will have to keep my eyes open for one of those it would make a nice companion to mine.

Larry, I did find one of those.


These were from an Ashland special order (in the mid 1980s) of the Stainless Steel Chief Special Target. I thought these were so hot, I purchased a few from Harrison Carrol, ( a specialty S&W, Sig 210, and Colt SAA guy) as only certain upscale dealers got these. Could not find them locally ... remember this was all in the Pre-Internet days.
