I have heard of them and sure would like to own one. The Model 14 with the full lug and 6" barrel is too muzzle heavy for me. A 4" full lug in .38 Special would be a joy.

I do have to say that a real sleeper is the Model 15-? that were made in the late 1980's with the heavy barrel. I was with my buddy at a show a few years ago helping him spend his money and found one in near new condition. I had never seen a Model 15 with the heavy barrel as seen on Model 10's and it had a great balance to it. It was during the period of handgun shortages in the last administration when everyone wanted a hi cap plastic automatic.
The seller said "I'll let it go for $400". My buddy looked at me for approval and I said what the heck are you waiting for ? The gun shoots wonderfully.
