Thanks for the warm welcome, and cheers, salud, prost, etc.!
I haven't disassembled the gun yet (since I don't own it yet), but I'll ask the owner. He did let me borrow it for the weekend to take a look at it. It looks like the take down procedure isn't too complicated, and I are an engineer...
It doesn't appear to have had any refurbishment done to it over the years, or even during war time for that matter.
I know what you are saying about collecting. I'm 28...and in the breif time I've been collecting, prices are going up and up and up, and guns are getting a lot harder to come by. Wish I'd bought that M1 Caribine a few years back for $200!
I've attempted to post some pics...hope they came through!
