That's a real beauty. Those are as rare as hen's teeth. I had a chance to buy one once (consignment sale) and I stupidly did not do it. I have been kicking myself ever since.

That's a nice gun, but I think you should dirty it up a bit. That rascal can be a fun gun for generations to come. When you hear someone say, "They don't build 'em like they used to", you can say, "Yes they do!".

Nice gun and welcome to the group. After you shoot it, let us know how it shoots. Larry

Do the new ones have the heavy barrel like the -5 (and -6s before full lug) or the thinner barrel of the -4s and previous?
