Jeez has it been 4 1/2 years since this thread was active?
As promised and after a lengthy wait, in fact I had completely forgotten I had sent in a request it's been so long, I recieved the factory letter for my 4" 14-3 "Heavy Masterpice" described peviously in this thread. To my suprise this gun was shipped to Olympic Wholesale, Los Angeles CA, on July 23,1971. I had ***-u-me-d it had shipped to one of the two Midwest distributors since I purchased it from a seller in Mass. It was one of 20 identically configured 4" 14-3s and Roy confirmed that the target trigger was installed at a latter date which more than likely explains the action work also. And they were shipped with walnut Magnas per Linde's supposition. Oh well, there goes the "one of ten" target configured hopes but I still got one nice little pistola!
