I honestly can't say sir, I've not had the opportunity to get it to the range yet.

It's a 2002 version of the Series 70 re-issue that I recently bought. Being it's an early model, it came with the flat nylon MSH instead of arched, blued trigger and double diamond stocks. I replaced the trigger with the "sliver" finish type that was used on the Series 70 of the mid-70s, replaced the MSH with a steel arched model and the double diamond stock with a set of Colt medallion coco bolo's. Just to make it a little more like the originals.



Those stock are some of the relatively inexpensive "Exotic Coco Bolo" from CDNN.

Thanks Bob!

Hey amigo, you wouldn't happen to have a set of wood stocks for a 3rd generation Dick Special at the shop would you? I've set back a later 3rd DS, which came with the Pachmayr's, I'd prefer wood if I can find any.
