I once had a US&S bring back... got it from coworker... Naval veteran dad passed and mom wanted him to take it to the sheriff to get rid of it... glad we had lunch that day... lol... traded it to a friend that was a Kimber dealer... swapped for a stainless Target Kimber - first generation... at the time it was a great deal... not so much now... mine was 98% and was parkerized if that helps anyone
