I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.

That's awesome, too. Hard chrome? |

Including a WC barrel, EB ambi safety, Magwell, Bo-mar N/S rear & new ignition system. I certainly didn't need another Gov. in .45, but for $800, come on man. And it dates to 1997, which is around when I bought one of these, but foolishly let it go. I had Tussey Custom but an Ed Brown ambi on mine. Maybe this was it and its coming home?  Attached File |

The label says matte blue and stainless guns had/Have "stainless" under the ejection port IIRC. That's freakin sweet! |

Picked this up yesterday and rung out some issues. It ran 100% today. Trigger is still a little heavier than I prefer. It doesn't help that it's an all steel trigger. I did change the grips for something a little more aggressive. Attached File |
