Update, it is a Loveless Field Gun
It was recently offered on an online gun auction site. I took some pictures of the pictures, and sent them to a few people that would know. I got lucky, they all replied.
I was one of only three bidders. There was no interest.
Bob Loveless made this one in 1973-1974, so it's a fairly early one.
He made it for Dr. David Dixon. Dr. Dixon was Bob's landlord for the house/shop at 4333 Tyler St. Riverside. Bob later bought the house from David. David was a special guy, and one of Bob's closest friends. David suggested a few changes to the Loveless Fighter, which Bob made. (Loveless Dixon Fighter Knife.)
I am gathering a lot of information and documentation on this pistol.
Here are some more pics.
