Welcome from another in the Gun shine state... I'm guessing you are in the northern or Panhandle area of Fla,
My 73 Short Rifle is a 44 Special (not mag) I've had it about 15 years now and have used it CAS.
It previously, had been a SASS tuned stage 3 Short Stroke, and slick as Ice.
I reversed the Cowboy & Indian brand toggles back to OEM style conforming to NCOWS rules which was a simple matter, and it is still slick.
Sorry 6MT , did not attempt to highjack
