Yes.

I like the fit & finish of the prewar Colts better than the S&Ws but the Colt grip doesn't fit my hand nearly as well as the S&Ws do. IMO the little prewar 'kit gun' that SDH made and showed us is the neatest thing I've seen in a long time, I'm envious!

You can lead a man to logic but you can't make him think. NRA Life since 1976. God bless America!
