Hi all - I wanted to show off my latest acquisitions.

First is a pre-war Heavy Duty S/N 45122. Mechanically good. Blue has some freckling. I think this puts it about 1934. Paid $600 for it after all commissions, etc.





The second is a Post -war transitional Outdoorsman. Lots of holster wear, but mechanically very nice and mirror-like chambers and bore. S/N is S 70925, which I think puts it about 1947? Obviously wrong stocks, but I have located a pair of correct ones through a forum member here. I paid $700 after all expenses, which may have been a bit high as the stocks are going to cost me a bit.





Thanks for looking. Comments welcome!

Jim
