Two things guys, It's HIS gun, and it's a 37. Even in the first year they made a bizzillion of them. I see them all the time for $250- $350 around here. Just sold one just like that (1938) for $325 last week. Give the guy a break. He is proud of it, as I would be, and it makes him happy. He wasn't doing it for any of you, he did it for himself, and was proud enough to want to share it with us. Lighten up.
