Just picked up this old girl from the local hardware store. 1/2 round 1/2 oct.,full magazine, shotgun butt, flat top rear sight(I suspect it’s been filed) standard front. The screws are great and full of gunk. Just enough wear on it to make it honest. Serial#228119.

I like that, not too long ago I picked one up in similar configuration in 30WCF. Mine is 1911 and if they were side by side at a range bench we’d have a hard time picking the right one up. The butt on mine is crescent and the rear sight is flip type. I’ll have to take some pics and post mine. Thanks for seeing yours.
