I would be happy to provide pics.  All I need is a direction in which I should
send them.  I remind you, the Jukar is rough, but for fifty I couldn't pass it
up.  The CMC really looks sweet.  I'm not a reinactor or anything like that. 
Just a guy lucky enough to have all the "normal" firearms he's interested in
and now out and about looking for the "weird and the wonderful."  I'm not a
specialist or an expert in any type or style of arm.  Just out there looking
for "cool" pieces.  That being said, there's always room in my safe for a
C.O.P. .357.  ;)
