This is a really nicely adorned 'built out' Colt 22 Conversion, riding on a Caspian slide, complete with Checkering, S&A Beaver, S&A Magwell, Wilson Thumb Safety, Dlask LW Trigger, Checkered competition mag release, Ahrends rosewood grips, topped off with a spray on finish in satin black. Comes with one Colt mag.

Gun shot quite well this afternoon, what I do know is Caspian shipped the frame in 1999 to the Gun Tailor in Murfreesboro TN, not much info out there on that shop, but theres what I know!

$1250 Shipped OBO

I feel like with ammo prices I can't afford not to buy this

That's a pimped out plinker when you add it all up with the checkered frame and a Pony top end.

I am not sure a guy could afford to source the bottom half parts and have it fitted together this nicely for the price!

How many rounds did you put through her? What weight and bullet type?

I just did the math without shipping and taxes on the parts on the lower it's pretty close to your ask without any work or refinishing

PM sent, but I surely am not wanting to step on Alpina or anyone else's toes that are wanting to put down the big three words and wrap her up.

Yeah. I should have been a little more motivated on this one, but you can't have them all.

That's a pretty amazing deal. Good luck.
