I would be happy to provide pics. All I need is a direction in which I should
send them. I remind you, the Jukar is rough, but for fifty I couldn't pass it
up. The CMC really looks sweet. I'm not a reinactor or anything like that.
Just a guy lucky enough to have all the "normal" firearms he's interested in
and now out and about looking for the "weird and the wonderful." I'm not a
specialist or an expert in any type or style of arm. Just out there looking
for "cool" pieces. That being said, there's always room in my safe for a
C.O.P. .357. ;)
