I'm not saying it isn't, just that I've never seen square corners on both ends (the tops, of course). I haven't looked at as many as you either. Have you seen other C96/M30/Bolo front blades with both square corners??? It may just be the angle and the lighting...

I like the idea of the detachable magazine, and a 45 C96 would be a displayable novelty...Almost a collectible...I thought it was a rather low estimate for the two, and I can live with or without them...
