I have been blessed to now own serial # 71. Apparently it is part of the records that were lost in the flood. I have also just learned about "subscription guns". Does anybody have info on this gun? BTW, it is a high polish and the entire frame is plum colored! As a collector, does it get any better? I know RR only if I find 70 or 72,

#69 and #71 both appear on Bob's List, entered as being shipped in September of 1957.

Many of us know where #69 currently resides.

;) ;) ;)

Rod, I am not enamored with consecutives but I have to think that is one of the harder pair to come by. Two consecutive 2- digit BKH3s. You kiddin me??? OMG! Now question is t appears that there is some oblonging to screw holes due to over polishing. Do you agree? When I grow up I want to be just like Rod. Oh that's right I am older than you already. Fat chance I will ever grow up! If those ever need a new home, I would "sell the farm" to have them". Tom

Got my threads mixed up. Do you consider these high polish guns?
