Well, I've been searching for months on "the right one".....and it finally happened. I was looking on Auction Arms, and won one for $99.13. It is missing the trigger guard, but that's only a $20 part. It did come with the pin, spring, and plunger.....so all I need is just the trigger guard itself.
So TN Guns was the importer, and they are just across the lake from me. It was really frustrating to me that it was going to be almost $12 flat rate shipping on a trigger guard that is only going about 12 miles as the crow flies.
I was talking to the guy about it at my local shop where I have my transfers sent. He laughed and told me that the owner of TN Guns was one of the partners who owned the local gun shop as well. He called him on his cell, and told me that he'd drop one by the shop in a day or so.
The other great thing about it is the year of manufacture. I had no idea when I bid on it, but when it got here.....it's a 1974, which is my birth year. Triangle hammer, serrated trigger, flat grips. She should clean up very well!
