Nice! That is a rare bird. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It is not only rare, but in beautiful condition too. I don't know how you would ever top that.

Outstanding, now how about telling the new collectors just why us older collectors are tripping over our tongues and drooling all over our keyboards. :mrgreen:

It's uber rare. Only 1490 dragoon P26s ever made. Not sure how many are confirmed to exist still. This is the only plum one I have found reference to...or anyone I know. Once in a lifetime find....
