Hi All,

I have a choice to make. A 1917 DWM all matching, very good bore, 85% orig finish (with some pitting on holster contact areas) w/two miss-matched mags. for $600. Or, a 1937 S/42 all matching except for the pin, near excellent bore (minor frosting in some areas)75% finish (excessive wear on front and back strap otherwise nice) with two miss-matched mags for $500. I have been in the market for a shooter, I already have a 90% 41 BYF w/bakelite grips. Please advise. mm
