Just going through and cleaning and checking and ran across this box that evidently was used to ship me an outdoorsman. I just don't remember:-)

Gorgeous!
That's the kind of thing that you see at estate sales. Someone in the family of the deceased gathering up a firearms collection that they know nothing about, for the sale!

Yeah, I'd more likely find a Masterpiece box with a rusty Iver Johnson in it!

That right there is deception in advertising. I think that someone was trying to get rid of some obsolete junk by packaging it in a newer box.
I'd send it back and ask for a refund. 
On the other hand - Does the box number to the gun? If so it may be original, as with S&W you just never know... 
BTW - beautiful 38/44 O/D - regardless of the box that it came in.

You were supposed to send me that Outdoorsman a few years back and sent me a Ruger instead. I just din't want to embarrass you for the memory slip up.
We can straighten this out real easy.
