1973 vintage Belgian Browning Nomad. Actually Ive had this gun for a while . Picked it up from the local pawn shop for $220. I picked up a spare barrel and sent it into a somewhat local smith who recently set up shop . To cut and crown the barrel back to 4 1/2", thread the muzzle 1/2x28 and install a new front sight assembly AND reblue the barrel assy will set me back a grand total of a hundred bucks. Should be a good shooter and will be a welcome departure from those dreadful P22's and mosquitoes and sig conversions Ive used the 22 silencers on...I'll post pics when I get it back from the smith.

It would certainly look more correct.
The Maxim would go on this one or I was thinking more on one of my Colt Woodsmans . The "new" 1st series one I got that doesnt have the correct period barrel that is. I wouldnt feel bad about cutting that one up. The seconds series I have that my great grandfather bought new in 1950 I couldnt cut. Same basic layout though. Both Browning based designs. This nomad is similar to the newer US made Buckmarks with their detachable barrels although I dont like the grip angle of the Buckmark.
