YEP. Personally, I really wish that somebody would "resurrect" the old Colt's Model of 1908, adding only an ambi-dexterous safety.
(The good originals are too much $$$$$$$$$ to daily pocket carry.)
Fyi, EL PASO SADDLERY currently makes the standard GI General Officer belt/holster & have them available for order/quick delivery by many current flag officers.
Fwiw, I bought my Model 1908 in 1966 from an older man from Gurdon, AR who bought it new to carry as a rural mail carrier after WWII. = He said that he carried it every day but seldom fired it.
(The little Colt was "my second handgun", when I was a young Deputy Constable.)
What I'd like to see "come back" is the Colt's GOLD CUP in .38 Super, like the one that I took out of my holster & gave (after he so obviously LUSTED AFTER it,) to a Mexican SJP commander one afternoon., in 1980.
(After that, I got "superior cooperation" from the SJP & "our guys" could do NO wrong down there, thereafter. ======> "Hearts & Minds" & all of that.)
YEP, there are still NUMEROUS Beretta 84 handguns on GB for 289.95 + 30.oo S&H, from Mach 1 Arsenal in TN.
(That same vendor has BHP imported from the Israeli police for 450.oo & some FEG HP-clones for 289.oo)
