"Commercial Artillery"?

DavidJayUden · 05-18-2015, 04:07 PM

If it was a 1916 dated DWM, then my guess is that it was a military gun that was converted to "commercial" and sold on the civilian market. All the "stuff" sounds great, but in the end you end up with "stuff", and most likely not worth the asking price. And you know the drill, photos may help. I'm curious if the upper was notched for an artillery sight and if it had a rear sight on the toggle.
