The firing pin looks good. Im planning on grinding off the aperture sight and once the rifle is bare I might paint it with that stuff from brownells cant remember the name but it looks nice. Does anyone have the correct sights I could possibly pry out of your hands. Im glad to join the club the design of this rifle is sweet.

Aluma Hyde II was the stuff I was thinking of I guess in eithe matte black or semi gloss probly the matte. What is this rifle worth, you will never guess what I paid for it. There is what I believe to be an original all leather sling with it to any tips for rehydrating old leather.
