based on what I see I'd say the grips are not factory... medallions are too far back and low, and the escutcheons look silver colored, not brass..but I have been wrong before, and most likely will be in the future..

I think the grips are not right based on the style,color of the 'stag' and the bark layout, too new, typical of SanBar stag from India..........too new,
neat gun, with the short barrel, wonder what it letters as...whoever did it ,the muzzle crown looks pretty darn good...it is what it is and at that price ,too high by about $200-250

Probably a nice shooter grade gun and a fine carry piece if one is so inclined on size and flattops..........Agree with Rugerguy on value. There was a short barrel SBH early SN 2XXX on the 4/28/12 Heritage auction that sold for less than $500............... 8)

If I had lots of money laying around, I might be tempted to snag that just 'cause it's a neat looking shorty, and appears to have been done professionally. But then again, I've been known to spend too much just 'cause I wanted something! :)
