Hello Don. Yes the pistol is a bronze.

I wonder how many they made over the 563 awarded? Triple that do you suppose?

As I recall you wrote that lower grades could be traded up to the higher grades but if the awardee wished to retain the lower grades they had to purchase the bronze and silver if they attained the gold.

I have only seen males with the award. All images from you I might add. Did any females compete?
