Bill I need some more coffee. The RM is obviously not engraved! Sorry
Bill:

I remember that beautiful RM very well. I have vivid recollections of sitting at my desk in front of my computer, on the phone with an auction rep, watching and listening to the auction price blow past my maximum bid fairly quickly.

That gun is a beautiful piece and I am glad that it was purchased by a fellow forum member, who if I recall correctly has added a bunch of the "extras" (box, tools, brochure, letter, Historical Foundation docs...). He's taken a beautiful gun and turned it into an outstanding package - it is a "one gun collection".

Edited to add a link to Bill's thread on this gun - one of the more informative threads on the Forum I might add: Registered Magnum 'Pinto'
