Very nice. Change the springs and go shoot that thing. And it looks like about a mid 1943, with the orig forged trigger group. __________________

Looks like an orig bar-lock sight? Hard to tell in the pics. Does it just spin? Have you taken the sight apart? Check to see what is stripped.
How are you set on clips? __________________

Congratulations Jon, I'm glad you found one. __________________
