I had a DCM RR that I refinished back in the 60s and put decent sights on, used it for IPSC. Along about 1978 the frame cracked at the slide stop pin. I actually got Colt to replace it with a Gold Cup frame and put the original RR serial number on it. Most of the time since it has worn a 1970s Colt .22 conversion kit, so it's a dead ringer for a .22 Gold Cup. About the only original parts in the gun now are the grip screws. I think.

However my 1943 parkerized DCM RR is stock, and gets fired about once a year with hardball on its "anniversary".

My stock 1913 one gets fired a few rounds every time I watch "The Wild Bunch".

The young whippersnapper of the bunch is a SA Milspec in stainless. Good shooter,too.
