    Anyone ever used Millett Optics/Scopes?

    I too have a millet red dot and I bought a Millet insert for my GP-100. The Scope won't hold point of aim shot to shot on my .44 and the "drop in" insert turned out to be "File to Fit". They might make some good stuff but I will never buy, nor recommend Millet to anybody again.

    best red dot?

    The Millett Red dot that I tried on my Contender in .44 Mag would not hold its zero from round to round. Whether it is a single scope problem or is indicative of the company, it has soured me on the Millett name forever. That coupled with the fact that the GP100 sight inserts they sold...

    Used Virginian Dragoon Value?

    The "Don't Tread on Me" is also known as the Gadsden flag and a quick Google will reveal more about it. The Virginian Dragoons that were made in the States (vs the Hammerelli guns) Had different engravings on the butt of the pistol. Here is a link to a PDF on the Dragoon...

    My Blackhawk convertible cylinders are Electro penned with the last three of the serial number. I assume this is because they are fitted to the frame.

    The For Sale Pitch of "Rare"

    Heh-heh. There is a gunshop near me that has "Pappy" Boyington's .45 on the wall. Next to "Stone Wall" Jackson's boot gun. I bet those are rare! Disclaimer- they are tongue and cheek examples and not for sale.
