Breaker, again, thanks for your input. I have been gathering data, and have decided for clarity purposes, instead of calling them a Utica model with a gracefully curved steel trigger guard, or a Utica model with an alloy trigger guard painted black, to refer to them as a Utica First Model or Utica Second Model. This is all my doing and has NOTHING to do with any factory description I have found. Welcome to this forum!
