Interesting part of this gun is that it is
one of the latest observed with the checkered main spring housing. I would
be interested to hear from other collectors with guns in this SN range as
to if theirs has the checkered or ribbed main spring housing. Consensus
appears to be this is possibly correct and original to this gun. |
