Smile "Built" 1914 type Navy for Jasta2

Bill was looking for a replacement for the navy he sold me a year or so back! He suffered "sellers remorse" and I had accumulated enough pieces to build another shooter for him. Finished it up and test fired this week.

So here are a few pictures for him and you guys to see what a "built" navy means. The navy rear sight is on of the reproductions and is a casting- which is why the surface is a little grainy. I tried to file and polish it down a little, but you can still see the porosity. He will have the only 1921 dated navy clone I know of too boot.

Bill can decide to send it for a nice rust blue finish and it will look pretty good, well better anyway. Shoots like a dream now.
