Yes, not sure I am the lucky one yet. Won,t get my hands on it until next week. What did you think of the CC? Gun was restored in 1971 according to seller. Dave

Rocky Mountain Cartridge Company sells very high quality brass shells. There are probably better places for lower priced shells.

Dave, I spoke to him at length and before he could properly describe the gun, you bought it. My personal opinion, and like all opinions, they are like a..holes and everybody has one and most of them stink LOL , you got a very good deal. That being said, the proof is in the pudding and you'll know once the gun is in hand. Don seems to be a very forthright person and I'm sure there will be no issues. Jim

When I talked to Don he knew it was a 14 ga. Did you inform him or was it someone else? I figured that there was not much time to decide on buying or not so I jumped in. The no return deal scared me but what do ya do if you want a D2 hammer gun , 0 frame? Dave

David, I went through the gun with him as he knew very little about it. He thought it was a 12ga and a larger frame. As we perused the gun, we came up with what it really was. A real nice gun rare a little, but well worth what you paid as of now. We'll see. Please keep us informed. The stock finish may have to be addressed but the case colors look to be adequate. Original case colors are tough to duplicate and then have them blend in correctly with the rest of the finish. Thanks, Jim
