You called it a "real" sideplate gun!
It just struck me a bit like a blonde starlet calling her implants "real silicone", if you get my drift. No offense intended!
While Uncle Dan didn't really have anything to do with the Nitros, you 'gotta admit, a Nitro might be the king of American using guns, and I've seen a few that looked like they had served in several wars, and were still ready for a day in the field. Uncle Dan didn't have anything to do with the DS guns, and we still consider them Lefevers. Tough as they are, I don't have a lot of trouble thinking of Nitros as a good gun, alongside their Western Arms Long Range brothers, and association with the Lefever name.
Getting hung up on a name might cause one to miss the fact that the guns are best judged in use.
Back to the topic, NIDs are really ugly, useless guns, and I don't think ANYONE should consider buying any more, no sir. They need to be kept cheap, because they are so useless, especially the small bore guns, in high condition. So, don't buy any. Not until I get mine.
Best,
Ted
