Nice .30 Commercial...

You might consider swapping in some stand-in parts when/if you're shooting the gun, in order to conserve their matching numbers.

What I find most curious about your post is that you've apparently had recent help from Tom Heller (LugerDoc). He was a tremendous asset to our community, and to my knowledge hasn't been heard from for quite a while. Illness and a fire have been mentioned as explanation for his absence, but a definitive report of his specific circumstances has yet to emerge.

Actually, I didn’t correspond with Tom. I just found an older post from him that answered my question. He indirectly helped me by helping someone else.

As far as using donor parts for shooting, what parts are most likely to wear or break that I may want to swap?
