1.  Did the Monson plant produce 745s?  I ask because that appears to be the hole in my large frame range.  I've been whittling away at Monson Mass produced models.

2.  I read in the SN listing that the 375 SM was a Palmer production, w/ one member stating he has a Monson produced gun.  My 375 is also of the Monson era and I think there are others here as well.  Does anyone have a clue as to how many were Monson produced?

 

That should keep you historians busy for a bit...

 

Thx,

Ron

There are model 745s that were produced in Monson.  The 745 I sold to Jody is one such example.

I have had both Monson and Palmer 375's.  I still have Monson 375's, I sold the Palmer.

My 375 is also of Monson manufacture.  A lot of the information posted in the Archive was compile earlier and we have since found some of it to be inaccurate. So we need to do some clean (I will start another post about this).

Ron, the 745's are hard to find so it might take you a while to find one.  I sent Wayne a note a long time ago and ask if he ever sold it I would like shot at it (Thanks Wayne!).  I'm actually taking it out for the first time this weekend!

Smooth move, Jody.

The (preferably Monson made) 745 is the one hole in my collection that I don't ever expect to fill.

I'll add my name to the list, mine is a Monson .375 too.
I'm still waiting to find my 45 or 745.Smile
