Very nice!

Where exactly on the pistol is that awful 'Eagle' over N located???

Rich, in the second picture, you can see it at the front upper area of the receiver, just behind the barrel. It's in the reflective highlight field.

It's also on the barrel and the locking block:

Sweet! Did you post that on the P 38 forum? I looked and did not see it, of course I miss a lot. Please post it there. Warden, from the P 38 forum.

Nice acquisition!

That is the kind of thing to separate the knowledgeable from the wanna-be's...Put it on your table at the next show and watch the eyeballs of the people who stop & look...
