Oh my, putting a factory letter on a Registered Mag back together with the revolver is almost like. . . that movie where they meet on top of the Empire State Building. . . .

REG MAG 1819 - Pic
Many - I'll email you my address, and thank you.
Re the comments - guys, I think I bought the gun from Many in the first place, so it wasn't a big surprise.
This is rather an interesting gun. It's quite possibly the best condition example that I own, 99%+, and has some nice history that I'll expand on later if anyone's interested.
Hope you enjoy the pic.

Another gorgeous gun, Dave!
I'll trade you a case of 10 brand-new Romanian AK's for it! I've got 6 cases but one can "disappear"...

So you own more than one registered magnum. I think that is just being greedy. If you feel bad about it, I can send you my address & you can get rid of one by sending it to me. In this new Obama world, you know you are supposed to share. I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Me either, but if somebody would like to turn their RM into a forum "pass around" gun so that everybody can have the experience of fondling, caressing and shooting the real thing, it would be a really nice gesture!

Very cool and great looking Registered Magnum!
By the way the movie was, "An Affair to Remember" with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr.

That is a beautiful gun.
I would not call having more than one Registered Magnum "greedy." I would call that "lucky!"
Thanks for sharing.

Reg Mags
Chris - there's an album with pics of some of my Reg Mag collection on this forum, if you're interested. My K-32's are up there now as well.
Look under the "Community" drop down menu on the main menu line above. Click on the "Pictures and Albums" option and you'll find folders containing several of this forums contributors collections. The albums are well worth a visit.
Lee - is it worth pinning a note at the top of the forum pointing people to the Albums? I'm not sure how many folks know they exist.

Interesting history to boot. DO tell.
