So you saw the weapon on Gunbroker as well. Thanks for not bidding. I was the only bidder and got it for the opening bid of $1100. I was prepared, and expecting, to go much higher.

I hope the gun meets my expectations. I liked the very low serial number. Most likely at some point in the hands of Mr. Liebenburger, the man who did what "couldn't be done" in bringing the Shorty Forty into production.

I feel like I will own a piece of history with this weapon. My first Performance Center Smith.
