Yeah, you read that right 
But Vinnie! Haven't you been looking for one of these for years? Yes, I have, and I just picked this one up 6 or 7 weeks ago, I was thrilled! It's in great shape, has the wood grips (also in great shape!) and was arrived exactly as described by the guy on here I bought it from. I figured if 114 gets implemented and I was limited to =/< 10 rounds I might as well CCW something with a little class
So why after all that am I selling it? Well, turns out the arthritis in my right thumb is worse than I thought and I can't hit the safety the way I could 25 years ago
I've been out 3 times with it, tried arthritis cream rub on my thumb, ibuprofen, heat packs, thumb exercises, voodoo dolls . . . nothing helps, my thumb just can't move that tiny fraction of an inch I need it to to reliably hit the safety without really shifting my grip. I thought about keeping it for a range toy, but I'm too poor to have anything that's exclusively a range toy
Plus, having it is a constant reminder that I'm not 27 anymore
So, it's come to this . . .
As I said, in great shape, small scuffs on the left side of the dust cover, a few safe rash marks and one mag has some light rust, if I can find my fourple-ought steel wool I'll clean that up. The mag in the gun is rust free White paint on the front sight that I think may have been luminescent at one point but it looks like it's been on there for years.. SN is A412*** so I'm thinking 1977/78 maybe?
Cash is preferred, and I can't really think of any trades I would be interested in for this one. Feel free to hit me up with a trade offer if you have something you think I will like, but be advised that polymer pistols, shotguns, modern hunting rifles and AR's are going be a "Thanks but no thanks"
Shipping is a possibility but I want to try for a local sale first
I like A Cut Above but I'm open to an FFL of your choice and I'm willing to consider Vancouver
I'm not the pixel police so feel free to ask questions in the thread if you like
