Concept of a fixed sight N-frame goes way back
Saturday, November 23, 2024, 09:00

The tons of 1917 .45's are a testament to their validity. I read of some mechanical issues (police armorers) with the 58 but I can't figure out how that could be. Same guts as any N-frame. Perhaps the Bangor Punta period when things fell off a bit? Just needs a little polish. I'm certain this one will get top billing, can't wait to see the end product. A RB version would be even more exotic.

    - This one is worth a bit more than we thought - Gary Reeder, 2024-11-23, 11:40
      - I’ve never heard of an S frame?!? What makes it different? (nm) - drdougrx, 2024-11-24, 05:37
        S-serial prefix, a production run notation. - WB, 2024-11-24, 15:53
        They were a pre-N frame. Very little difference but enough - Gary Reeder, 2024-11-25, 12:12
        S prefix up to 1970, N prefix '71 and later. (nm) - Amede, 2024-11-24, 17:14
