Give me an original anytime. The centennial box is quite pretty though, bought one at the time sans pistol now told it would be worth more if it had the cr**** pistol in it(?).

Ah, just an old time traditionalist.

I would generally agree that the quality and finish of the Turkish Tempests falls well below that of their Birmingham equivalents and they are literally a real pain to cock. I have examples of both and have begrudgingly found the Turkish Tempests to probably be as accurate and powerful as the original, but neither can get anywhere near close to the earlier machined steel pistols.
