    I guess another question is a matched (original) barrel/receiver combo that much more desirable than a replacement barrel and if so, how much more?

    I have 43 of them in the database and basically the bulk were produced in 1941 and 1942. None in '43,'44,'45. There must have been a small run again in 1946 as some of those reported had provenance...

    An original barrel/receiver combo are very desirable to me in a WW2 rifle and if the barrel is tight even more so. A nice tight stock with correct stamps would be even nicer. That would seal the...

    Now that's some apples and oranges.

    P17s left behind?

    What do you think? Did we leave all of the P17s behind at the old forum or what? Nah, probably not. We'll see a few P17s pop up I'm sure.:bash:
