X2. Its confusing when the picture of the gun you think you are getting is actually a different gun. I have read disclaimers from other sellers selling this same pistol. That is, that the gun pictured may not be the actual gun in the description. Mis-leading and confusing to a novice like myself or any perspective buyer, that doesn't do their research to the tee. It should not have to come to that. I don't think it would be that hard to get the correct picture to correlate with the written description. There is about a $50 cost difference between a brass BS & brass top strap as compared to all steel.
