          LOL I keep my screwdrivers like that one in my gun safes so my next of kin will have some idea they're valuable when I'm gone. I know there are different variants with different numbers of knurled rings on them and that affects their value.
          "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
          "What we get away with isn't usually the same as what's good for us"
          "An extended slide stop is the second most useless part you can put on a 1911"
          "While Ruger DA revolvers may be built like a tank, they have the aesthetics of one also,
          although I suppose there are a few tanks which I owe an apology to for that remark"

              Yessir, you are indeed correct.

              Oops! We ran into some problems.

                  I probably threw away a dozen of the 70's era aluminum handled ones that used to come with new Smiths. I found that the shafts kept coming out of the handles or would spin in the handle..

                      Yup. S&W afficianados can discuss such things at great length.

                      I'd rather pay $100+ less and keep the thing in a rug and use a regular screwdriver.

                      Had to pass on a beautiful 3 screw Ruger Blackhawk because it had the box & all the goodies...

                      and was priced accordingly.
                      "He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
                      You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
                      You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."

                          Here is my $100 screw driver in a $150 box with a $1500 gun (k22 with a three diget serial number)


                          And here is my registered magnum in a $500 box, if the box was mint it could fetch over 1k not even including the gun. The grips alone are worth over $600.

                              Do you have an extra "Helpful Hints" brochure?
