USA	Prettiest Combat Commander I have ever seen...high polished HARD CHROME, not nickel..... 1956 .38 Super Commander, BarSto barrel, BoMar rear sight, tritium dot front, hard chrome frame...one of the best shooters I have ever owned... My first Super bought in 1980...unfired 1969 GM. Most inaccurate gun I ever owned...groups of 3'..that is FEET at 50 yards. Had a BarSto barrel fitted and the groups went to 3" with the same box of ammo... Carried on duty 1980-81... Over the years it collected a lot of trophies...

Still love it, and it will be close to an ultimate 1911 after a good freind from here finishes with the trigger, (has all new Wilson guts already) but now I want pretty grips and to polish the stainless steel to high gloss! And some night sights, and a lazergrip, and....... LOVE God, LOVE your family, LOVE your country, LIKE guns and sports.

I used to frequent McManns Roadrunner gun shows down that way a lot, before buying and selling as a private party became illegal. That is about the time I moved up here, btw. I still have lots of reloading supplies with sale prce tags from Simms Hardware and The Old Sacramento Armory. Both on J street in old downtown Sacramento. Remember THOSE icons of shooters nirvannah?
