I doubt I'll do much if anything to this one Sid, other than a trigger guard. It needs nothing and the patina is great.

I have a Wheeler set at the shop and a Brownells set at home. I like the Brownells set better. It just seems to be a bit (no pun intended) better some how. I have broken bits in both sets.

Middle of August. Started at the new employer on Aug 22. Finally managed to find a nice place to live (2 block from the ocean) and moved in about a week ago. Just got back on the net today.

Very nice!

targa911S 11-25-2013 05:09 PM
Welll good for you! I loved FL. you will too. No hurry on the little gun, I just wanted to make sure you still had it. Concentrate on what you have in front of you. I'm not pushing you. Good luck on your new venture.
