This old beat up red eagle came in to my possession today, my first one. Probably shouldn’t have, but it was cheap, and will make the wait for a real nice 4 digit a little bit more tolerable :mrgreen:

Didn’t notice until I got home that it has a blued trigger.

If it falls within the s/n range of 17,273 to 21,808 it is a type 9.

Great looking pistol, didn't take you long to find one ;) :D :D
Now you need a Red Eagle Target Pistol to keep her company ;) .

Good Hunting,
Terry

Don't know why, but the pics don't show up for me.

Thanks everyone for all generous comments! The photos show it to look a little better than it really is, probably needed more light. I’m just happy to finally have an older Standard :)

Hope to get a chance to strip it down sometime today. A little nervous to see what it looks like under the grips. :|

Heheh… it could happen. An older sister could fill that roll as well ;)
