New to me Browning Medalist

Back in '74, I got my first real job so my wife & I moved to Salem, Virginia. I stopped by a little gun shop a few blocks from our home and spied a gorgeous Browning Medalist in the display case. Now, back then, I couldn't even pay attention, much less the $500 price tag for that sweet target pistol. I hated to walk away but I did. A couple of years ago, I started looking for one of the long-out-of-manufacturing beauties but most were fairly pricey but the prices of additional Browning magazines were in the ionosphere. Well, a few weeks ago, I found one that "spoke" to me. It has a few small handling marks accumulated over the last half-century but, then again, so do I! I paid the dealer and brought it home:

I'll take it to the range sometime this week and put a few rounds through it. I'm guessing I'll shoot like William Munny so the shotgun will be handy!
