Thank you. The holster is from American Classic Gunleather. I have a couple of his and they're really nice and well made.

I have had one of his floral carved holster's for a few years for a 6.5" N frame. He does nice work, especially his floral carving. The only thing I wish he did was to add a welt to his holsters. He didn't do that years ago, does your holster have one?

The "gold" fill on the frame is faded, it's fine on the barrel. Thanks yo you guys, I ordered the Bonanza kit and one of the gold ""crayons."

JP, did you ever try the kit and crayons?

As for buying commeratives, I have two, a Texas Rangers and 44-40 Wagon Train. I bought both at Pawn shops, I think I paid $300 for the Ranger and $250 for the Wagon Train. I bought the Ranger because I live in Texas and the Wagon Train because it is the only modern 44-40 that Smith made. When the Wagon train came out I bought a new one for $500, Three weeks later I saw a used one in a pawn shop for half. I planned on shooting the 44-40 so I sold the new in the box one and got my money back. Only other commerative I have ever bought was a 94 Winchester Teddy Roosevelt carbine. I kept it for 8 years and didn't shoot it so I sold it. You have to keep a commerative a long time to recoup or make money.

PS, I walked into a LGS and in his junk pile I saw a Wagon Train presentation box, Picked it up for $20
