At the gunshows I go to there is a dealer with a 12-43 Rem. that to me looks all original. It has a very nice stock with correct parts and finish on the metal. Marked OG not in a box. He wants 795.00. I offerd him 600.00 at least 4 months ago. Last I saw he still had it. Reason I did not buy it was I have a 9-43 in a liitle better shape. They are out there! Pass on this gun and start going back to the shows.
