    Before I bid can you guys tell me if this is a fake?

    Hi gent's, I have always wanted to add eithe an L42A1 or a No4 Mk1 T to my collection & last year I added the T so I'm a pretty happy dude but....
    You know what this addiction is like, you can't only have one

    I found this on GB & I've studied the pics but something just doesn't feel right to me, 1st off there is no S stamp on the right side of the receiver like on my T
    2nd, the front base pad looks pretty knarly but I guess that could be normal but I'm concerned that bubba took his time with the rear & then got drunk & did the front.
    The crate looks legit & I realize that it's missing some accoutrements but I'm OK with that.
    Pricewise I think that it's approaching it's max but only time will tell on that issue.

    Anyway I would love to know what you guys think before I bid
    Thanks in advance, Mick/NSS
