    Smug has nothing to do with it and no i don't have all the answers. this hobby has become blighted by people who want to make their carbines back too W.W.2 configueration (and at one time i was guilty of it too) who (and it's just my opinion)are defiling the history of the carbine by doing so and feeding the greed of the humpers who prey on the unsuspecting. deal only with other collectors for parts and stocks and whatever else you want to change your carbine for. the best thing people can do for their carbines and their wallets is simply to just leave their carbines as is. you want an original they are out there buy one or as many as you can afford. JMHO not trying to flame or shame all this "is this real" BS is for the birds, we are our own worst enemies in this hobby best regards

    PS the band is real the swivel is fake, it's missing something that the real item has.
