This is an A1 that sat in the back of my safe for 10 years. In 2005 I sold it to a friend without paying too much attention to it. Last week it came back in a trade; luckily this time I was not asleep at the switch! I have owned 3 or 4 of these in the last 25 or so years, including one with steel barrels and later ejector system (redone at the factory I guess). This one serial #980, has the best execution of any I have owned, what do you think? Check out the inside of the locks.
