DWM Commercial Survey--call for data

Bill,

Good luck on the sale of your 1900 Commercial. That is a nice early serial number and great early features...a Type I safety is really neat. Commercial pieces are not common on this side of the puddle, the majority are American Eagle. The Ideal grips are a nice bonus, but unfortunately the stock is the hard part to find.

One slight comment, the GERMANY marking was an export stamp and was applied in Germany, not the US.

Thanks for the info on the GERMANY marking, Ron....I didn't know that!

An IDEAL stock was seen fairly recently at a local Show. Perhaps it will reappear at our next Show this coming Sunday. It would be nice to "marry up" the IDEAL bits before she sells.

Cheers,

Bill
