Southern WI, I believe that pistol was available at the KC MVACA Show about 15 years ago. I examined it and the damaged "bevel" of the front of the slide was unusual. If I remember correctly, it may have had a slight bulge in the barrel. I bought one, went back for this one and it was gone.
Oddly, Simmons' 1981 Gun Digest article shows two listings for 166056, both identifying it as a Portuguese Contract, the second also identifying correct Acceptance and Shipped dates and Savage Arms Co.. Pretty sure he made a typo
