Reunited with an old friend
Today a friend of mine sold me back a 1917 Arty that I sold him about 6 years ago. I sold it to him for $1500 and bought it back, with a commercial type stock, for $1800.
I remembered it as all matching but when I got it home my memory came back to me as I rediscovered it has a Swiss side plate, mismatched extractor and hold open. It also has British import marks on the right side of the barrel. My gut feeling is I overpayed a bit but the gun is otherwise VERY clean, 95%-97%, with a perfect bore.
