Hi John,
I am on vacation at Tybee Island using a laptop, so my screen is not that good. Having said that, the quality looks pretty good; I am thinking about buying one to do a detailed exam. If I do so, I will report back.

The simple facts remain. These guns were produced in a different time and had a great deal of hand finishing and polishing. There are bound to be differences between guns made within a few hundred numbers of one another.

Bottom line: Ya' gots to know what you are doing or you put lots of $$ at risk. There are, alas, no short cuts.
