I picked this up earlier today. I purchased it from a retired KY State Police officer. It is a former evidence / seized gun that he purchased at auction. It has some wear but probably fired very little. There is a scratch on the sideplate. The function is flawless. Grips are numbered to the gun. The little grip safety pin is present. This will spend some time in my pocket. It's a great little gun.

Nice gun! The Mika pocket holster works great, but you probably already know that.

I absolutely love Mika's pocket holsters. They are one of the few rare values out there. They are functionally perfect, sweat resistant, and inexpensive. I order a couple per year because I never want to be without one (I am still using my first one). The wait gets longer and longer. I forget about the order until the holster shows up months later. Robert Mika calls or emails every time that I order and asks if the wait is okay. It is well worth the wait. The guy is a class act and he makes a top notch pocket holster.
