Being a newbee I am trying to learn. This rig would be way to rich for my blood. Why is it a poor buy? Too expensive? A fake? Can anyone explain? This whole thing just looks too good to be true. Thanks. Joe

It's a total fake. It didn't even start out life as an artillery.

Good catch George! I didn't notice the lack of a receiver notch for the rear sight until you said "fake". Of course, everything looks brand new, including the leather. Anything else to help us less experienced folks? Thanks.

Extra magazines lack a plus (+). Stock lacks a cartouche. Barrel is from a late artillery...no fine tune spanners. Fake learther with possible exception of holster. No halo on forward toggle. Pitting under the bluing. etc., etc.

The color of the stock iron looks similar to that on my Odin reproduction stock.
