[quote] mrj833 Maybe I can help a little with 45s,as I have handled both guns, The Gun in the Norton Gallery has NO serial number, It was purchased out of canada in 1960 and was fired 150 times (I still have the empty brass). The numer 2 (with magazine #21) is still in the U.S. In Walters 1st book he says the gun pictured is sn 14, but it is the un-numbered gun. In his second book he says the gun shown is sn 1 but is sn 2. <hr></blockquote>

Hey that is too cool. What is the story on that? How in the world were you able to handle both, let alone shoot it.

I have talked to one other person that said they shot it, plus read a story in one of the Gun Magazines.

Tell me more, I am dying to find out?
