Looking to buy these. m12 and m97 trench?

[Gcoleman]

1018712 is the serial #. So from the pics what all are wrong guys? I no the hand guard is wrong. And the barrel has been threaded. The stock has no cartouche. Prrly a replacement. Is the barrel not suppose to be marked cyl? The magazine tube looks correct to me? Has the us flaming bomb receiver and the flaming bomb on the barrel.

Also guys. There are some pics of the serial number. Could u take a look and see if it looks to have been refinished?

Never mind a re-finish, the stock is replacement(no marking), the barrel is altered, no hand guard(reproduction)...there may be a great deal more if the pics are larger and we(Tom D) could see them better, we could tell more.

Sorry, I did not see the original photo of the serial number. The number on the receiver extension is pretty light. Maybe a refinished gun.

And with that serial number it likely left the factory as a trench gun.

Oo n/p Tom. I really appreciate your help on this one. I offered $600. I hope he takes it
