Dwight,

Thank you so much for down-sizing my pics and putting them into a logical order of sequence. The pictures were shot starting with the little parts and tiny markings and ending with the assembled pistol. I especially appreciate your inverting one image to see the number 81 properly rather than upside down.

You said:

"The multiple-number stampings on some of the parts is cause for serious reflection."

Thank you for that comment, but why does that happen?. I do not understand the relationship of multipe-number stampings and serious reflection. 'Splain that tummy. I thought it was more a matter of the primary light angle [ sunlight on an overcast day ] onto the number stampings and thense the reflected angle into the camera lens. I do agree that the small parts with two or more stampings are not in good focus.
I admit being a beginner on this. I need more practice with focus and to *discard* more unacceptable shots.

TKX again for your tremendous help in getting my pictures onto this Forum.

I am running a Mac G4 and need some freebie download photo software to down size the pics myself. I need to check the Apple site to see what is on offer for MOS Tiger 10.4.2
