Yep, it's a TBB gun and it's purdy garish looking. Sold enough junk around the house on eBay to buy it. Per the box, it's an "A" engraving job and came with Smith stag grips. I plan on leaving it to my daughter when the time comes. It's been turned but a super low miler. What do you think of my lunacy?

Some times it is not easy being a real gun guy. But sure is fun. Congratulations!

I really like that gun, it looks like one that has been on GB and was selling for $2,050 with a buy it now but the guy was willing to take $1,850. I did want it but my wife just passed away and life is kind of upside down crazy so I decided not to buy it now if it is the same gun that is.

Excellent, but it would be a shame not to shoot a 66.

Thanks, it is something you don't ever understand and until you have it happen to you. My wife battled cancer for 6 years and finally the cancer won out. I miss her terribly, she was my wife of 20 years, my lover and best friend in life.

Sorry about the off topic guys.

You have my heartfelt sympathy. I've been battling cancer for over 2 years and my wife is battling heart disease and diabetes. I've learned to take one day at a time and thank the Lord for each and every one of them. I've made up my mind to live each day to the fullest and try to enjoy every moment I can.

Riptrack congratulations on the great looking hardware and you have my prayers for you and your wife. While no one can ever walk in your shoes I do understand how it can hit you and how it changes the way you look at life. My wife and I knew what was coming and we lived every day for that day, we took nothing for granted.

Shouldn't there be a slab o' ribs in there somewhere?

You have my sympathies on your wife and my congrats. on a beautiful snub. I have one without the engraving like it. Shoot it but take especially good care of it. They are a pleasure to shoot.
