No, Jerry made that gun in 1966 or '67 for a Frontier Airlines pilot that wanted a light gun to take sheep hunting. The gun is just under 6 pounds all in and that is done with real wood and steel. No plastic or titanium!

Celeste, Jerry's wife had his log books from being a pilot and asked me if I would want his log books, I told her I would to keep with that gun.

It turns out, he was a B-17 pilot in WWII and the log books were his flying during the war! That is the kind of provenance you just don't find....
