Not sure I deserved this…

Recently, while surfing the web for birth year guns, I came across a very nice 1954 38/44 Heavy Duty. It was presented beautifully and was very tempting, (and pricy) but I didn't pull the trigger.
A short while later, in conversation, I mentioned the gun to my daughter and wife, and the next thing I know, my two Princesses got in touch with the seller, negotiated a lower price and we'll, here it is.

As per Roy, this HD shipped in November of 1954. It appears close to, if not, unfired.

As beautiful and meaningful as that gun is to you, never forget that you have something even greater. You have the deep love and regard of 2 wonderful women. That is a gift beyond measure. You sir have been blessed.
 
That's beautiful. i would letter that one and see if the Target Stocks were factory. I see the TS grease pencil marking on the end of the box and that may be original. Even if not I sure wouldn't complain.
