J&G sales back in the late 70s and early 80s was my supplier of Lee's Auto Mags and Howdahs and other exotic guns and he told me in '81 that they had the NAA 450 ordered and would get me the first one they got in. In early '82 I left the gun shop as I was still in radio and moved to Sarasota Florida to manage a radio station on an island off Sarasota and at that time Mark had not got any of them in yet. In '85 I retired from radio and bought a gun shop from a friend in Santa Fe. I talked to Mark in '85 about any special guns for my new shop and he mentioned then that he didn't have any Auto Mags in stock or Howdahs or AMT longslides and he had never received any of the NAA guns. So that is all I know.
