Ed,

Sometimes I can't see the forest through the trees! I sure do like my FN framed P-38. It is a great teaching tool for other P-38 owners to make sure they look carefully at ALL the markings on their guns.

I had a gent offer me his beautiful P-38 at a recent show. I told him I couldn't afford it to which he said, "You can't afford $500.00?"

I told him "No, I can't afford $2500.00." Puzzled he said again that he was asking $500.00, to which I said that he needed to do some homework on his gun. You see he had a 3 digit S/N Zero code high polish P-38!!! I don't have the heart to steal a gun like that from someone like that. He walked away a very happy man.
