It's a great old gun (I still have the Model 81, Dad traded off the Model 8) I always thought the Model 8 had the cleaner lines of the two. <br />(I love to be able to get it converted to a 15 or 20 rd mag.)<br /><br />Good luck on your quest to find one. :-)Greybeardhttp://greybeard.igogg.comnoreply@blogger.com
