Hi Murray,

I'd ask all the standard questions - like about if the thumbprint is still visible, the style of the lettering, the serial number, etc. - but my guess is you already know the answer. Also - the hold-open shouldn't be numbered (a very few were numbered by Krieg, but they would match), or it should have a rejection star (for a commercial - which mine has).

Based on your description ("The breach block face ...like it has never been fired but the barrel is worn" and "..looks like pitting under the blue on..", etc...), honestly - if it were me, I wouldn't walk from this example, I would run....
