I have no horse in this race, and found the auction by chance whilst looking for Southwestern Concho Belts for Mrs Marvel.

Huh ! so I went to the site just for curiosity ... and surfed around 

I noticed Lot 9012: Italian Navy Arms Co. .36 Cal Black Powder Pistol

I bobbed modified  that pistol myself and sold it about 7 years ago .... recognized it right off ....I had sold it to the Texas Law Dog

there is still a sticky on the OT Boards about defarbling

[Professor Marvel]

Dang, Drydock, I missed that, and they are even in stock!
now we can watch and see how much over retail it goes!


OMG, Major 2 .... did you do the grips also? funny how stuff shows up, nicht wahr?

yeah  that is what decided it was Eliza and its crosshatch grips & reworded backstrap.

I reworked it in 2013 from NIB assembled parts and sent it to Jim

I bought a 44 Dance as a graduation present to myself for completing my MBA in 2014.   It is a great shooter, and that distinctive look is sharp!

  Ah Well ... Not Exactly   

A.  EMF Has them in stock.  B.  EMF has them in stock engraved "Old Silver" which is Pietta's proprietary High Polish steel and Heat Treat.  I have a pair.  But ... My two only have 3 1/2 inch barrels.  SNUBBIES they are.

ALSO:

Look closely.  At the Grips.  Trombone Bell bottom.  OLD STOCK.  The new examples at EMF has the latest version of Pietta Navy pattern Grips.  Correct to shape.
