looking at the gun even more closely now, I see all kinds of things that just don't look right. The barrel I would say is definitely either a replacement or it was taken off and re-blued. The alignment marks on the barrel to the frame don't line up. The serial numbers definitely have been re-stamped. And looking at the C/M on the side of the barrel is obviously been buffed over.

Also looking at the front toggle piece it looks like it may have been buffed over and the halos look like the barrels halos. All other halos on the gun are pretty much uniform around the numbers where they have halos.

I took some close-up pics for Norm and see if he can tell if its a force match. But looking at it myself it looks like it may have been sanded on. Looking at a straight on profile of the bottom piece, it almost has a wedge shape. And the colors are almost 2 tone.

The more and more I look at this the more my stomach just hurts. The downfalls of buying on the good old internet.

Let me know what you good folks think. Aint no point in hiding anything. I value the opinions of the members on this website. So let me have it.
