i watched this rifle for over 3 years at a local gun shop.  it did / does have some issue, but i still wanted this one as opposed to getting a Uberti.

Well, I too love the originals, and used to shoot them some, but since the Uberti come out, I just take the old girls out once in a while to fondle! :)  Say, that don't sound quite right! :D

In any case, nice example, and a good investment to boot!  Enjoy! :)

By the way, I may move these last few posts and pics to the thread with pics of original rifles - just so it don't get overlooked.
