Here is a photo of another rare one. This an Alaskan Guide Special which a few of you guys are lucky enough to own. What is cool about this gun in addition to having serial number 3 is the additional matching barrel assembly with a Burris scope. The barrel assembly has the same matte titanium nitride finish as the AGS.
I love the shrouds with Dan Wesson's signature. Very cool gun!

What does anyone know about Palmer manufacture of Alaska Guide specials (mid-90's & not necessarily marked with Alaskan Guide special as the ones out of Norwich.)??
Are they pre-production, prototypes, or just an early run?
Thanks very much.

Those were an early run, there was one on Gunbroker recently with a rather high starting bid price, not sure if it sold.

There's one on Gone-broker right now where the starting bid was $2,499. He claimed it as an unfired gun but you can clearly see the barrel is full of copper fouling and there's a gas-cut on the top strap. He did get one bid at that price, so it'll sell here pretty quick. Somebody is mighty desperate for a AG 445 to bid that price....
EDIT...bid is now up to $2,650...here's a link....
Blessed is he, whom when confronted with death, thinks only of his front sight...
