These are my first S&W "Pre"'s, love these old 50's guns. The pre 18 locks up tight in SA with a hair trigger. The Tex Shoemaker holster still has the original warning sticker on it. The pre 3.5" 27 well is just cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perfect balance and looks just bad. Can't wait to shoot them. They are not safe queens but if they were perfect they would have been real expensive and not something to trade a colt 9mm carbine for.

Great trade. It would have been tough for me to turn down that 43 Remington Rand 1911. But that 18 sure is a beauty.

Alot of the Camp Perry 1911's I have handled were stippled.... Yeah but when you do that to a 1943 us military marked gun the value goes downnnnn. These 2 trades need to add to my sale price so if I had to sell or wanted to down the road I could get the money I'm looking for out of them.
