Thanks guys.

Toothache bothered me last night. Feel much better now. There might be a cost issue limiting the quality of modern reproduction of C&R guns. There are high quality postwar reproduction. The postwar Krieghoff listed on Simpson must be great, but look at that price tag!

[Edit] I play a little bit amateur wood work, but not a machinist. Regarding Postie's "clearances (different from tolerances)", I assume clearances being intentional extra space in design, and tolerance being allowed unintentional but unavoidable inaccuracy in manufacturing. If my guess is wrong, please let me know.
