Dwight,

I think I follow you now. Would it be safe to call this a reworked commercial?

As far as the barrel length, I really have no idea how to accurately measure it. To me, it looks exactly 4â?.

I guess it doesnâ??t make sense that it saw action in WW2 in .30cal but I canâ??t think of any other reason to change the barrel in the states and still end up with .30cal. Why change it if it isnâ??t shot out? Or at least put a 9mm on it (I assume thatâ??s all it takes to change calibers?).

At first I thought this was some type of carbine and the barrel was salvaged in the states for a more deserving â??projectâ?. This doesnâ??t seem possible either.

I know itâ??s anyoneâ??s guess and really doesnâ??t matter at this point. The real question is if I can afford the .30 cal to make this â??shooterâ? shoot.

Thanks!!!
