1)Thanks!

2)I'll do what you have recommended in observing the stampings on this Diamondback?

3)I really was trying to "Cling" to this gun-because, I was afraid that if this gun was very special(And, legit!)I'd be a big "Loser" if I let it slip out of my hands, to go to another interested party?

4)Actually, the stamping of ".357 &" was placed just in front of the factory stamping of .38 ctg(And, this looked kinda funny to be on the very front of the short(2-1/2")barrel? Yet, I thought that if this Diamondback actually was a "Prototype" then maybe, anything could be possible(Since this gun, would never have been mean't for the general public, to ever see it!)?

5)Well, you have always been of great help to me, with your "Expert" Colt information! I have learned alot from this-and, I do appreciate it! The knowledge that I have gained from you, has resulted in my discovering some very nice Colt revolvers! I'll always look forward to whatever you might have to say about the various Colt's!
