It would be the converted Model 58 a kindly old collector handed me in 1972, along with a half box of Winchester 45 Colt factory loads. He'd had it converted and wanted the POI checked at 25 paces. It was about six inches high and four inches left.

I was 16 years old and took this as a high compliment, old Dale and I had shot together some before. I didn't understand the craftmanship necessary to conjure it up in 1972. But I knew it was Excalibur- and nothing on two or four legs better cross me, while I had it in my hands.
