I need a new rear take down pin done up in that finish and the heads up on the Robar company will work great in matching the finish. Thanks man.

Just looked into the S&W factory letters and got this..... Request the history of your S&W handgun
Due to the overwhelming success for Smith & Wesson history letters the current wait time is 4 to 5 months. It has always been the goal of Smith & Wesson to provide its Customers with service in a timely manner. Because of the high demand and extended lead time we are temporarily suspending the acceptance of any new requests so that we may concentrate on the current backlog. Please contact us after December 31, 2015 for further information and updates. Going to go wander over to the Colt site now. Wish me luck |

Thanks for the link though M1. |

Having that gun vetted by the factory before the next foray into bankruptcy might be well worth the $100 in the long run. |
