I bought one of the very first 28's they put out the door. I bought the standard model (no fancy engraving at all) withthe highest grade wood. It was thebest fitted, slickest M37 I have ever owned and was a joy to shoot. I really enjoyed it for dove hunts. I paid $700 and change for it. I travelled to the area for work often, stopped on the way home, ordered it and picked it up at the factory about 3 weeks later. Have no idea now why I ever sold it and have been looking for another ever since. I had a lot of 28's at the time and likely sold it to fund a different project. (Probably a new RBL 28 I bought).
They later made a line of WWII 45 auto pistols which were duplicates of their WWII models. I remember them being popular for a while.
