Thanks Eric, I have had Auto Mags for over 20 years and I am still fascinated with them.  I never thought I would see them come out again.  The owner has been at it for 3 years and is just shipping now.

I emailed him to see where my AMP sat in the lineup and he said I was in the first 20 and it should go out in a couple of days.  With any luck I should have it by the end of the week.

ECR:
We can hardly wait to see a few photos of her upon receipt!  Congratulations!  Very early serial number and build. Cool.

MRC:
The first run that they put out is a special edition with the 8 1/2" barrel with wood grips trying to copy the gun Dirty Harry used in "Sudden Impact".  I think they had about 75 barrel blanks so that is how many they are running.  They are calling it "The Founder's Edition" and will have special serial numbers "FE-XX".  I think it is a good idea for the start up of an existing design.

For the movie "Sudden Impact" they produced a blank firing AMP to use in the movie serial number CLINT-1.  They also produced a firing copy and gave it to Clint Eastwood and as far as anyone knows, he still owns it.  It is serial number CLINT-2.  A friend of mine in Florida bought the movie gun and still has it.

Here are some cool pictures.  Larry Grossman is the man who hand built the "CLINTS".

Those are beautiful guns! Enjoy!

Buffalo:
Great looking gun. Have to say I appreciate function and form in a gun.

I might try to find "Sudden Impact" this weekend as it's been years since I've seen it.

Thanks for the pictures
