    fakers at work

    My friend was on a trip to FLA and went to a large gun show, at one of the dealers tables, he found this revision 1 operating rod. It was uncut ! until he decided to clean it off with some Hoppes #9 which removed the small amount of black paint covering the stainless weld in the relief cut area. The faker even stamped another D in the stainless to match the drawing number. He is going to attempt to return this op rod on his next trip to FLA but there is not much of a chance to recover his money
