I picked up my Cimarron in .32-20 yesterday. Some years back I had passed on buying a 7-1/2" USFA in .32-20 for $700 at a gun show - this was couple of years before USFA went under. Regretted it ever since and this is about as close as I can get without spending a mint.

I'm not a fan of the red stain that the Italians use on their single action grips, same as many other folks. You'd think by now they'd know that Americans don't care for that. I've been looking at some discussions on various forums on how to strip and refinish them to look more like American Black Walnut. I also don't care for the gold medallions on this gun but maybe they'll be okay if I can get the wood looking more like what I want.

Still waiting on the Cimarron Flat Top in .45 Colt.
