smle addict,
You are not picking at anything............. this is exactly what the site is about.
To digest and analyse stuff like this to ensure people make a reasoned judgement call when they are presented with an alledged proper rifle they intend to buy, and they have asked for advice.
There is enough expertise on here to be able to..........(from photos of course), achieve a sensible response, to either buy or leave something IMHO anyway.
