Ok. I have never really been too interested in the little NAA, but Richard's is looking good enough I had to ask.

Thanks for the help understanding.

So what are you carrying cargaritaville?
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.

The Forum is rather slow these days, so permit me to add a photograph of the "little brother" of that G-380 of mine - a G-32 I purchased in the late 90's while on the waiting list for a Seecamp .32.  Gemstone of Gatlinburg cast some silver grips for it and the NAA factory gave it a high polish and "meltdown."  It's now a safe queen, but comes out occasionally for BBQs and "Dress Blue Sundays."


It seems that if I own a firearm I can't stop myself from having it customized.

I've seen some really nice pieces here as it seems everyone has good taste, but I have to admit those grips and the "meltdown" as you called it is very impressive!

Thank you all, gentlemen.  After seven months at my wife's bedside in Nashville-area hospitals and rehabilitation facilities with the R9 locked in the console safe of our CTS, I finally have her on home health care here at Critter Creek and am getting some time to become reacquainted with the contents of my long-locked gun safe. Opening it felt somewhat like opening a time capsule. A lot of old "friends" were waiting inside.
