sometimes it pays to ask questions

[Grouse]

Auction 2 is a classic example of why you need to ask questions, for photos, get the story behind the pistol. This is a pawn shop pistol, that does not bother me. I spoke with the owner of the pawn shop. Nice guy by the name of Chris. He snapped a few requested photos for me. He did take this pistol out and shoot it. Again that does not bother me. Here are the photos from his listing






As you can see hiss photos lack any real sort of detail, but i took a gamble and asked for more photos. I asked for photos of both sides of the pistol, the barrel shroud stamp, and under the trigger gaurd. There are 3 places that typically have import marks the left and right sides of the frames. PW arms redmond wa, CAI Georgia respectively. and there is a third often placed in the trigger gaurd by a smaller importer (t something it escapes me at the moment) Interarms also imported a few back in the mid 80's but that is not the case with this one. Chris the pawn owner texted me a dozen photos of the pistol via his I phone. Here is what i got.
