I paid $7200 for mine. Probably paid too much, but it is a dandy.

I notice it has the toggle dish's reversed. Is that characteristic of the 'babies' or just what was available?

Great observation.I had to go and look at some of my old pictures and the toggles were dished the other way.

The toggle dishes aren't reversed, I am not sure what you are seeing?

My mistake! Sorry for the confusion!

I had actually pulled out a Parabellum with reversed dish's for comparison. I should have pulled out a 'real' M1900.

Getting old, and have forgotten where half my guns came from.
