It's a nice pistol! Guy I bought it from said it had about half a box of ammo put through it, and judging by the wear, I would agree. It's a NRA edition of some sort... note the embellishment at the rear of the slide. #744 of #750, for whatever that's worth. It sure does carry nice as well... after 8 hours, a few ounces feels like a few pounds. It does pop your hand pretty good with factory-level 230's, so I usually load 200's over a midrange charge of Unique for it.
