I was able to score this one for under $200. Got a good deal. Some bluing wear at muzzle and back strap.

If I'm not mistaken, those early metal bottom mags are indeed rare and pricey!
The mags for the Standard can be created from later versions by simply moving their follower buttons to the other side--except those for the .45 style frame, which have a bottom that prevents their fit. The older 9-shot mags can be modified to hold ten rounds by shortening the tip of the internal stop enough to hold the extra round.
