How do i get my info to the OP so he/she can get my 5K on the way? I would prefer a money order. Not that I don't trust you but checks have been known to bounce.

1981 model year. The last year they made them in Nickel. :mrgreen: She is shiny! I have never pulled a smoother double action trigger in all my life. I am after a couple more as soon as I get my check.

Well, mine is easy. I already did it. Ordered my custom SVI Infinity 2011 in 9mm for IDPA. Took 15 months to get it and love if for every penny I paid. Shoots like a dream.

Wow!! Very nice! I like that a lot.

One problem. I am beginning to think we aren't going to get our checks. :totap:

Guns are a fairly liquid asset (easily sold) and thus an investment choice is still on the table. Which asset to own - guns versus mutual fund - is always a choice.
I chose guns about 40 years ago. I've managed a respectable average annual return. Best return has been in double guns and rifles from 2nd tier British makers and Colt pistols and revolvers. Need I add that collecting guns has been lots more fun than reviewing my portfolio?
