One thing to remember on that site (I like it), you'll pay sales tax for your state and their shipping is a little stiff. I will say, they ship almost same day, 3-4 days, in your hand. The swivels are cheaper than the picklocks, less desirable.

I suppose those 2 from ACK’s for $125 each wasn’t too too bad. But that price is up there.

All red-dot except for the Mauro Mario stamped pieces. These 2 are not from that run, but also said to be Oreste DiBon. These are swivel bolster, "D" stamped, 2-piece springs, nickel/silver hardware, stag and horn, 6.25" OAL. Built just like the big ones.

Those two are very nice! I especially love the one in stag horn that’s a true beauty. Very cool JV
