All the input so far is relevant, and all has merit. It is obvious that when viewed thru different eyes we have different opinions. The truth of the matter is the pictures are simply not of the quality to make a definitive assessment. The pictures lack focus, quality and clarity, most importantly, color? Not to mention they cover everything but what is needed. We have all purchased one thing, something, at one time or another, that, was very different once we had it in hand. Soooo, I'll even go one step further, we will not know the true condition of this example until someone with some serious knowledge, views this gun in direct bright sunlight? Best, til.....lat'r.....GT....
On Gun Broker, this same gun has 61 bids and is just shy of $4500.00, I just now saw it on GB, 6 hours left....
