Ok, camera is on the charger so pic's will follow soon. I've been digging through the forum looking to see if anyone else has seen what I have or something close to it. The Good : Appears that all parts are matching. Bore is clean. The Bad and the Ugly : the top of the chamber and the toggle link have been ground. no date or makers stamp visible. I have seen one other that had this type of treatment done to the toggle link. It belonged to my late Father-in-Law who brought the gun back in 1945. That one is dated 1918. Anyone see this before or can explain why it was done?
Thanks in advance, Mike
