!@#$#~!!

At least the number of crappy torch jobs inflicted on guns by one person isn't a huge number, if that's any consolation.

Landers is in the wrong line of work for certain. He ought to be the machine operator at the pumpernickel toast plant.

Maybe it's not a selling point, maybe it's tongue in cheek.

By the way, how much torch time does it take to become a Master Gunsmith?

Just out of curiosity, do you think the areas behind the hammers are devoid of color, or does he remove them when he flames the sideplates?

Pretty interesting gun nonetheless. If the barrels truly match to the gun are in the stated condition, I would find it very attractive for an American gun. Simply have it color cased properly and it's good to go.

I rather like it.

I am just glad I found this site before jumping in on the sxs world. I was really thinking of buying a gun from that one seller.

I am glad that you all pointed me in the right direction. Thanks!
