Is it possible for envy and astonishment to jump by 300 percent in a moment? I guess so, because it just happened to me.
Amazing good fortune to have found those fine revolvers, Jim. Again, congratulations.

I have 9 45 cal Smith & Wessons revolvers with a production of less than 23. They go from only 1 made to only 23 made.
does that meet the requirements for the most rare 45,s.

While rereading Elmer Keith's Sixguns, I found where he had a 1917 Target that he shot quite often. I wonder what happened to that one.
