Wow! A beauty and a relatively tough date to find. Given that there are no hidden issues not visible in the photos, I agree that the rig is in the $2000+ range.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the knowledge you've shared, and this site is fantastic.

I bought it, and I couldn't resist putting a mag through it. I know, I know; but I've wanted to shoot one since I was a kid.

All parts inside do indeed match. The flash did cause the strawing to appear brighter then it was. The bore is bright and shiny with no erosion present. I even found cosmoline behind the trigger.

Function was flawless with a nice grouping at 21 feet.

My apologies for the photos. I'll stay away from the image hosting next time.

From the info I got, it is a vet bring back, but not a US vet. This is from the Yugoslav theater, Macedonia to be exact. The rig is as it was brought to the US.
